Abstract

In this paper a retrospective vision of the development of MMS in Spain is presented. A historical perspective is first outlined and the research carried out in MMS and vehicle engineering is also described. The evolution and changes in education in Spain have been also addressed regarding MMS in the last half century. Not only has the development of new degree plans been analyzed, but also the increase in the number of engineering schools and their impact. Afterwards, future trends in the evolution of MMS in Spain are analyzed. Finally, expectations and critical problems in relation with the field and the scientific community are discussed.
