Hi, I'm translating a course catalog from a Panamanian university. The first page has the following title:
DESCRIPCIÓN DE CURSO DE LA CARRERA DE LICENCIATURA EN INGENIERÍA MECÁNICA (SIN TENDENCIA)
I have this as "Course Catalog for Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering," but I have no idea how to approach the last part. Any idea what "sin tendecia" means here? I can't find it online.
Thanks in advance (so as not to clutter the comments)!

Areas of Concentration
The ME Department offers Areas of Concentration (AoC) for students wishing to focus their required electives within one of four content areas:
Aerospace,
Dynamic Systems and Control,
Energy and Power, or
Design and Manufacturing.
Courses contributing to each AoC are listed on the Undergraduate Catalog. If you take three courses in one AoC, you may apply to have this Concentration listed on your transcript. In order for your Concentration to appear on your transcript you need to complete this form during your final semester.

FACULTAD: INGENIERÍA MECÁNICA
CARRERA: LICENCIATURA EN INGENIERIA MECANICA (TEND. EN ENERGIA Y AMBIENTE)
https://fim.utp.ac.pa/documentos/2015/pdf/utp-mecanica-ing-m...
The Energy and Environment (E&E) Concentration in Mechanical Engineering at Catholic University aims to provide students with knowledge and skills of the growing and challenging areas in energy and environmental engineering and technology.
https://engineering.catholic.edu/academics/undergraduate/mec...
The concentration in energy and environment within the BSE program in mechanical engineering is designed to prepare students to analyze technical problems in:
https://degrees.apps.asu.edu/bachelors/major/ASU00/ESMAEEBSE...
It means that the studies don't concentrate on a specific field.

I'm from the UK and I think I'd probably use 'specialisation' instead of 'concentration', though I'd need to research it further.

Mechanical Engineering Major Electives
It is recommended that students think about their electives as a whole, and consider using them deliberately to either gain breadth in their educational program or to focus on an area of particular interest (see “Areas of Concentration,” page 8). Students should consult their faculty advisor to plan a course of study which will best meet their individual educational goals.
