FAQs

Can I incorporate to the minor an activity I had previously completed?

Temporarily, and in order to stabilize the choices of training activities in minors for all UPF students, if an activity has been completed before being included in the training activities choices for the minors while the person concerned was a UPF student, exceptionally it will be eligible for incorporation to the minor and included in the computable training activities to obtain it.  

If I've taken a subject that belongs to a minor, can I obtain it?

To obtain a minor you must pass the minimum credits established for each programme. Some subjects may be in the academic record of an official degree, provided they have been taken as free elective, cross-disciplinary training or RAC credits, and with the ceilings established by each minor.

Having completed the training activities entitling the student to obtain a minor, he or she must request its certification as proof of having obtained it.

Which activities can I get recognition for if I only enrol them as a minor?

About recognition of activities completed as a minor out of the academic record, those subjects with equivalent contents or competences will be eligible for recognition till the maximum dictated by the academic regulation for degree studies in the article 8.2.3 and what the minors regulation and each minor's report dictate. 
 
However, Pompeu Fabra University intends to promote, through minors, a kind of training complementary to that of official degrees and in this sense supports the notion that minors can be obtained through training activities different to those on the academic record of the official degree.
 

Which subjects cannot be included in the minor?

Subjects or training activities that form part of the study programme that the student is enrolled on cannot be included in the minor.

Free-elective cross-disciplinary training subjects and RAC credits which are included on your academic record and are also part of a minor will only be taken into account for the attainment of the minor if they do not exceed the maximums established in the report of the minor. 

What requirements must be met?

To take a Pompeu Fabra University minor you must be registered for one of the official degree programmes offered, either in the Open Degree programme, or as part of the UPF Alumni programme.

 

Can I still pursue the minor if I participate in an academic exchange abroad?

No. As academic regulations dictate, subjects included in the minor have to be undertaken within the UPF, attending lessons in the Pompeu Fabra university. Therefore, they cannot be undertaken in an exchange program abroad.
