The ULABS (University Applied Labs) represent one of the most innovative initiatives within the Bachelor's Degree in Mathematical Engineering. These are applied laboratories where students work from early stages on real projects in collaboration with companies, tackling high-impact technological and scientific challenges. These projects allow the application of mathematical, analytical and computational knowledge to real contexts, fostering active, transversal learning that is deeply connected to professional reality.
Each ULAB project is developed with a clear objective: that students learn by doing, solving complex problems with professional tools and forming part of multidisciplinary teams. In this sense, students not only strengthen their technical skills (such as artificial intelligence, data analysis or predictive modelling), but also develop communication, project management and decision-making skills in real environments. All projects follow agile methodologies (Scrum, Design Thinking, etc.), which helps to replicate the work dynamics they will encounter in their future professional life.
Among the most outstanding projects is DeNexus, where students design an analytical architecture to detect patterns in global cybersecurity incidents. In the ICON project, they apply artificial vision techniques to analyse real-time images of traffic in the context of the transport of the future. For its part, the project developed together with Avanade by Microsoft consists of the construction of a digital twin of the campus, using simulation and advanced sensorisation.
Projects with a strong social component have also been developed, such as the collaboration with Mujer Fénix and Save the Children, where students contribute through data analytics to improve social intervention processes. In the field of health, work is being done on the detection of clinical patterns in oncology using AI, collaborating with medical institutions to generate predictive models that help in clinical decision-making. Finally, in collaboration with Técnicas Reunidas, workload prediction models have been implemented in international engineering projects, using temporal modelling techniques and historical data analysis.
All the projects are developed in small teams, with close monitoring by the teaching staff and periodic reviews with the companies. The results are presented publicly and form part of the student's professional portfolio, which directly contributes to their employability. In addition, the use of real software such as Python, PowerBI, Spark or simulation platforms guarantees an experience aligned with current industry standards.

La carrera de Matemáticas se centra en el estudio teórico y abstracto del conocimiento numérico y lógico, con un enfoque profundo en demostraciones y estructuras formales. En cambio, Ingeniería Matemática aplica ese conocimiento al mundo real, utilizando herramientas computacionales, estadística y modelado para resolver problemas en sectores como la industria, la energía o las finanzas. Mientras que el matemático se pregunta por qué ocurren las cosas y busca comprender la raíz teórica, el ingeniero matemático busca cómo usar ese conocimiento para optimizar, predecir o simular situaciones reales. Ambos comparten una base sólida en matemáticas puras, pero el enfoque práctico y tecnológico marca la diferencia en la ingeniería. El estudiante de Matemáticas suele tener un perfil más orientado a la lógica pura, la investigación o la docencia. El de Ingeniería Matemática se perfila más hacia la aplicación de modelos y algoritmos, y está más vinculado al desarrollo tecnológico y la resolución de retos reales. En definitiva, una formación te prepara para construir conocimiento, la otra para aplicarlo con impacto directo en el mundo.
