It is possible to consider the exemption from taking the introductory module (Course of Postgraduate Studies: Foundations of Terminology), and, consequently, the recognition of the corresponding 10 credits (ECTS), exclusively for those students who enroll in the entire Master program (not for those who enroll by modules), who provide documentation which certifies basic knowledge in terminology.

This exemption and subsequent credit recognition will have to be approved by the Direction of the program and the Postgraduate and Doctoral Studies Office of the UPF. In this case, each credit will have a registration fee of 25% of the original amount, as established by the regulation of the UPF-specific studies. This fee will be included in the single payment for the registration of the entire Master's program.
