In the risk engineering and management teaching, technical guides need to be complemented with standards, regulations, guides and professional criteria of Spanish and international prestigious institutions. This situation allows the extension of teaching opportunities, addressed to design teaching activities focused on the analysis and knowledge of considered industrial safety technologies. For this, from the Manufacturing Engineering area of the National Distance Education University, a methodology based on the simulation of the actual Health & Safety professional practice has been developed. In this work, an analysis of the student’s opinions on the teaching methodology of several National Distance Education University subjects related to industrial risk engineering and management is performed. The study covers a period of five academic years, collecting a total of 232 surveys. The analysis methodology has allowed to obtain a general view related to the student satisfaction. Among, the conclusions, it can be highlighted the satisfaction with evaluation model, the flexibility, the quality of contents and the teaching methodology. Finally, in the future, this methodology will be used to perform another teaching performance based on other approaches based, for example, specifically in the training -obtained in these subjects- for professional issues.
