Sumario:[EN] Adaptation to the European Higher Education Area has required the implementation of active methodologies that promote the involvement of students in their own learning process. This type of methodologies are particularly suitable for optional subjects of last courses, as they usual are attended by a low number of students and this situation gives the possibility of giving them a multidisciplinary approach. In the academic year 2013-14, a new optional subject called: "Industrial Safety" was implemented in the last year of the degree in Chemical Engineering. In that first course, teaching was performed by traditional methodology with master classes, producing unsatisfactory academic results. For this reason, in the following academic year (2014-15) we designed new activities based on different active methodologies, in order to improve the subject, in academic results and satisfaction of students. This work analyses the improvement of the learning in several key contents of the subject, based on the responses in the initial diagnostic survey, and final marks in the evaluation items corresponding to each content. The results show a significant improvement in learning of most of the contents and excellent final academic results, which seem to be favored by the new activities and implemented methodologies.
