Admission and enrollment
General access regulations and procedures
Information on access and admission of students to master's studies is available at: https://www.urjc.es/estudiar-en-la-urjc/admision/274-master
The regulations are also published in: https://www.urjc.es/estudiar-en-la-urjc/admision/274-master#normativa-de-masteres-universitarios
Criteria and procedure for admission to the degree
The general requirements for access to University Master's Degrees are, according to article 18 of Royal Decree 822/2021, of September 28, which establishes the organization of university education and the procedure for ensuring its quality, the following:
- Possession of an official Spanish Graduate or Graduate university degree or equivalent is a condition for accessing a Master's Degree, or, where appropriate, having another University Master's degree, or titles of the same level as the Spanish Bachelor's or Master's degree issued by universities and higher education institutions in an EHEA country that in that country allow access to Master's degrees.
- In the same way, people in possession of titles from educational systems that are not part of the EHEA, which are equivalent to a Bachelor's degree, will be able to access a Master's Degree in the Spanish university system, without the need for homologation of the title, but verification by of the university of the level of training that they imply, as long as in the country where said title was issued it allows access to university postgraduate level studies. In no case will access through this route imply the homologation of the previous degree held by the person concerned or its recognition for other purposes than that of carrying out the Master's degree.
- Universities will guarantee transparent and accessible information on admission procedures, and must have student orientation systems. Likewise, they will ensure that said information and admission procedures take into account students with disabilities or with specific needs, and will have appropriate support and advice services.
- Universities may exceptionally establish, based on specific regulations approved by their governing bodies, conditional enrolment procedures for access to a Master's Degree. This will consist of allowing a Bachelor's student who has not yet completed the TFG and a maximum of 9 ECTS credits to access and enrol in a Master's Degree, although in no case will they be able to obtain the Master's degree if they have not previously obtained the Bachelor's degree. Universities will guarantee priority in enrolment for students who have an official university degree of Graduate. In this procedure, credits pending recognition or transfer in the Bachelor's degree, or the requirement to pass a certain level of knowledge of a foreign language to obtain the degree, may be taken into account.
- Universities or centres will regulate admission to Master's degree courses, establishing specific requirements and, if necessary, training supplements, the credit load of which may not exceed the equivalent of 20 percent of the degree's credit load. The credits for training supplements will be considered in the same way as the rest of the credits in the Master's degree curriculum.
- Universities will reserve at least 5% of the places offered in official Master's degrees for students who have been recognised as having a disability of 33% or more, as well as for students with permanent educational support needs associated with personal circumstances of disability, who in their previous studies have required resources and support for their full educational inclusion.

External Internships
The External Practices subject is a curricular subject whose main objective is to promote a comprehensive training of the student through the practical application of the knowledge acquired during the master's degree, which facilitates direct contact with the professional activity and the opportunity to join the professional world with a minimum of experience. All practices are designed so that the students who participate in them acquire professional experience in real situations and conditions, applying the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are acquired in the training processes throughout the degree. The internships represent a decisive opportunity for the personal development and professional future of the students.
Internships are activities carried out by the student in companies, institutions and organizations; that is, in centers outside the university premises, which aim to enrich and complement your university education, while providing you with a deeper knowledge about the skills you will need once you have graduated.
The External Practices subject will consist of two phases:
- Completion of the internship period that offers professional experience related to any of the graduate profiles that are expressed in the Verification Report of the degree.
- Elaboration of the memory
