If you want to start training in Mathematics and Computer Science and become an outstanding professional in the technology sector, we tell you what baccalaureate you need to access the Official Degree in Mathematics and Computer Science and what it consists of

Is it necessary to have previous specific training?

No, if you want to study the Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics Applied to Software Engineering you cando so without having studied a specific baccalaureate, you must meet the entry requirements set out in art.3 of Royal Decree 412/2014. However, the recommended entry profile is that of a student with a strong affinity for technology, an outstanding performance in mathematics and a strong interest in solving problems

Ideally, this would be a bachelor's degree in Science and Technology, with a special focus on subjects such as Mathematics and, if possible, having studied subjects related to Computer Science, Programming, Computing and Technology in general.

What will you learn in the Official Degree in Mathematics and Computer Science?

UDIT's Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics and Computer Science is an official 4-year degree, which will provide you with a complete and advanced training in Mathematics and Computer Science with the aim of solving real problems.

In the Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics Applied to Software Engineering you will learn to use mathematics in an applied way in the creation of software. To do this, you will use methodologies and tools for the development of efficient, maintainable and quality algorithms and solutions that solve current problems in different areas of industry.

Studying this degree in mathematics will also allow you to design and mathematically analyse reference models on which to build applications, design intelligent systems, make predictions or automate processes, making you one of the most competitive and in-demand professional profiles today.

During the first year of your degree, you will acquire a solid foundation in programming, linear algebra, calculus and structured databases, while at the same time understanding the legal environment surrounding this technology.

During the second year, you'll delve deeper into programming, mathematical logic, equations and probability, strengthening your foundation in mathematical knowledge.

In the third year, you will acquire extensive knowledge of software engineering, programming and simulation. At the same time, you will come into contact with the industry by developing your professional internship in leading companies in the sector.

The final year will be the final step for your entry into the job market, learning about visualisation and data management, the business environment and requirements engineering and modelling.

If you’re interested in both design and technology, you don’t need to choose between creativity and technique, but rather to identify the type of problem you want to tackle. Disciplines such as Fashion, Interior Design, Product Design and UX, Visual Communication, Animation, Video Games, and Data Science and AI apply varying degrees of both tools depending on whether they focus on the body, space, use, meaning, time or systems.

Using artificial intelligence to study can help you understand, practise and revise, but first you must check whether it is permitted, make an initial effort yourself, decide what role it will play, verify its answers and retain ownership of the process. Citing the tool does not replace the need for permission, nor does it automatically make its content a reliable source.

Official Master's Degree in Artificial Intelligence at UDIT: from using AI to building real solutions

22 May 2026

Knowing what prompt you give a model to produce a useful result is a skill. Knowing why that model is wrong under certain conditions, how to improve its performance with more representative training data, or what legal constraints are involved in deploying it in production - that requires another level of training.

If you are comparing artificial intelligence masters in Madrid and your question is no longer general but specific - what is the technical level of the programme, is your previous background sufficient, what is the actual workload of the master's programme like - this article is written for that.
