Learning in Tarragona
The School of Engineering and School of Chemical Engineering are both on Sescelades campus. The featured chemical engineering course combines taught study with an internship and thesis, while electric vehicle technologies uses a blended format with some attendance in Tarragona.
Those formats create different student experiences. If you enjoy a regular campus routine, look closely at the chemical engineering timetable. If you are considering blended study, map out the required examinations, laboratories and placement before deciding where to live.

URV’s course pages publish programme-specific fees and admissions information. Both featured courses require English at B2 level, with the chemical engineering page explaining its exemptions. The university has announced March 2027 pre-registration for these courses’ 2027/28 intake.
