The University of Salamanca approves the first Master’s Degree in Smart Cities & Intelligent Buildings. This degree is one of the 14 Masters organised by the BISITE Group and it is an excellent opportunity to train professionals from all over the world, as it will be available in both English and Spanish and in online and blended learning modes.
Students who pursue the Master in Smart Cities will learn from top professionals about a wide range of topics, including urban planning, sustainability and technology, infrastructures, intelligent systems, and the application of IOT in cities and buildings. They will acquire skills that will enable them to come up with innovative ideas and solutions for designing smart cities. In addition, they will have the opportunity to put their knowledge in practice by participating in large intelligent urban development projects such as LIFE Vía de la Plata, MOVIURBAN, CHROMOSOME or in the Qatar smart city projects, coordinated by Juan Manuel Corchado (BISITE) in collaboration with Professor Saber Trabelsi under the Science Program of Texas A&M University in Qatar.

Smart Cities reflect the present and the future, combining technology, organization and connectivity, and providing a high level of comfort for their citizens, as well as providing better alternatives in emergency situations, such as the one we went through this year because of the COVID-19. Hyper-connected cities have the capacity to respond to emergencies much more efficiently with the help of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data and Internet of Things.

The graduates of this master’s degree will be able to work in important companies and institutions dedicated to the design and construction of smart cities and buildings.
