Abstract

The School of Engineering at Universidad Europea de Madrid (UEM) implemented, starting at the 2012-2013 period, a unified academic model based on project-based learning (PBL) as the methodology used throughout the entire School. This model expects that every year, in each grade, all the students should participate in a capstone project integrating the contents and competencies of several courses. This paper presents an evaluation of its implantation from the students point of view. The results are encouraging as students are more motivated and the initial set objectives were accomplished
