The Spanish Government's Royal Decree 1393/2007, October 29 establishes the new regulations applicable to all official university postgraduate programmes.
In accordance with this Royal Decree, students can access official master programmes as follows:
Any student holding an official university degree (grau, llicenciat, enginyer, arquitecte, diplomat, enginyer tècnic or arquitecte tècnic).
Any student holding an official degree from an accredited university within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) which entitles the applicant to admission in an official master's degree programme.
Any student holding a degree from a higher education institution outside de EHEA which has been officially validated (homologado) or recognised by the UPF (the student will have to fill in an application form to access the master programme with non-validated degrees outside the EHEA during the pre-enrolment period).
The applicant's admission in an official master's degree program does not entitle him/ her to the recognition or validation of his/her previous degrees.
