Admission and enrollment

Admission:

The requirements for access to the proposed title are according to article 18, of Royal Decree 822/2021, of September 28:

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.

Recommended requirements:

The specific qualifications that will facilitate access to the Master are the following:

Degree in Computer Engineering
Degree in Computer Engineering
Degree in Software Engineering
Degree in Telecommunications Engineering
Degree in Electronic Communications Engineering
Degree in Industrial Engineering
Degree in Physics
Degree in Mathematics
Degree in electrical engineering
Degree in Industrial and Automatic Electronic Engineering
Degree in Audiovisual Systems Engineering
Degree in Communications Systems Engineering
Degree in Telecommunications Technology Engineering
Degree in Telematics Engineering
Degree in Engineering in Audiovisual and Multimedia Systems

As well as double degree degrees that include some of the above.

Other degrees or official titles that include computer programming and mathematical foundations equivalent to a graduate degree in science or engineering in their curriculum.

The body in charge of the admission of new students will be made up of the teaching members that make up the Quality Commission of the degree, that is, by the Director of the Master and, at least, 2 representatives of professors of the master. This will guarantee that new students will have the minimum learning requirements to face the title with a guarantee of success.

Candidate selection:

If necessary, assessment of the student's curriculum, based on their professional experience, their projection in relation to the objectives of the master's degree, as well as their academic record.

Curriculum assessment	Professional experience	Master lens projection	Academic record
20%	10%	50%	20%

Offer of places: 30 seats. If the minimum number of students envisaged is not reached in a course, the University may choose not to open the teaching group.

Renewal of accreditation

The renewal of the accreditation represents the culmination of the implementation process of the official Bachelor's and Master's degrees registered in the Register of Universities, Centers and Degrees (RUCT). The renewal of the accreditation of official bachelor's and master's degrees is organized in three phases: self-assessment report, external visit and final assessment.

In the first phase, the university describes and assesses the status of the degree with respect to the established criteria and guidelines. The result is the Self-Assessment Report (IA) that is presented. The second and third phases are carried out by a group of evaluators external to the evaluated title.”
