PRACTICAL INFORMATION ABOUT OFFICIAL MASTER'S DEGREES

The Master’s degrees offered by EUNCET are mainly aimed at those with a degree or diploma in:

  • Business Studies.
  • Business Management and Administration.
  • Economics.
  • Market Research and Techniques.

Official university graduates in the branch of knowledge of Engineering and Architecture, with specific training in the field of economics and business, with Degree in Engineering in Industrial Technologies or Degree in Mechanical Engineering, both from the UPC, will also be able to register with us.

However, those candidates who are not university graduates in the aforementioned branches of knowledge or who are, but have not taken courses that include the fundamentals of their proposed Master’s degree, must undergo a series of complementary courses, to lay the foundations for knowledge in the field of business management.

In accordance with the provisions of article 16 of Royal Decree 1393/2007 of 29th October, as amended by Royal Decree 861/2010, in general, students who meet the stated requirements may access official master’s degrees:

  • Possession of an official Spanish university degree or one issued by a higher education institution belonging to another State that is part of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and which entitles you to access Master’s degrees.
  • In addition, graduates of education systems outside the EHEA will be able to enrol without the need for certification of their degrees, upon verification by the University that those admit a level of training equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that they are empowered in the country issuing the degree to access postgraduate studies. Access by this means shall in no case imply the approval of the previous diploma held by the person concerned, nor its recognition for other purposes than the completion of studies for the Master’s degree.
  • In the case of graduates from education systems outside the EHEA who do not have their foreign degree approved, the Committee of the centre responsible for the Master’s may request the documentation necessary to carry out verification that the specific conditions for access to this Master’s Degree are met, including the certification of the qualification, if it cannot determine with certainty that the foreign title accredits the requirements of access.

Article 17 of Royal Decree 1393/2007, amended by Royal Decree 861/2010, regulates admission to Master’s Degree study and establishes that students may be admitted according to the specific requirements and evaluation criteria established by the university.

According to the academic regulations for university Master’s degrees approved by the Governing Council of the Polytechnic University of Catalunya (UPC), students can access any university Master’s degree of the UPC, related or not to their university studies, subject to admission by the Committee of the institution responsible for the Master’s degree, in accordance with the specific admission requirements and the established merit assessment criteria.

The specific requirements for admission to the Master’s degree are the responsibility of the Committee of the centre responsible and have the objective of ensuring equal opportunities of access to education for sufficiently qualified students. In all cases, criteria considered will include the weighting of the academic records of the candidates.
