U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

This master's degree is an interdisciplinary innovative proposal, which aims to understand and deepen their knowledge and research methods of Ancient and Medieval History of Europe. In both historical periods we find a substantial part of the cultural foundations that have shaped Europe at present. Scientific goals are the compression of the societies of Antiquity and the Middle Ages through the knowledge of historical and archaeological sources, states of the arts, historical debates, methods of work of archaeologists and historians, cultural, language skills, and paleographic and epigraphic

The Faculty of Sciences is a center that brings together a large number of renowned researchers distributed in different research groups. 26 research groups form the 5 departments with the greatest presence in the Faculty, and they participate in various national and international projects, agreements with companies and popular science. It is also worth mentioning the close relationship with the Institute of Physics of Cantabria (CSIC), which has participated in large projects in particle physics or astrophysics, and which has high-performance instruments and technological equipment.
Major profile of faculty
"Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science The staff has a broad teaching and research experience. The great number of scientific publications and a considerable number of international and national projects developed reflect this fact."

Medical Image Analysis and Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems have revolutionised healthcare in recent years, allowing doctors to achieve a much more accurate diagnosis, at an early stage, of the most important diseases. Technology behind the development of CAD systems stems from various research areas in computer science such as: artificial intelligence, machine learning, pattern recognition, computer vision, image processing and sensors and acquisition. This Master’s degree provides the basis of the theoretical and practical knowledge to this field.

The Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering is directly focused on providing professional solutions in any socio-economic sphere that involves the use of computer systems and tools. The curriculum proposes a range that differs from other curricula in our environment, strongly adapted to the features of our social and economic fabric, that allow the students to specialise in the pathway of computing, computer engineering, engineering for software or information technologies, not to mention a scientific foundation and a suitable technique.
