Specific required documents

 
 

Master's Degree in Numerical Methods in Engineering

In addition to the general required documents, students must provide an English B2-level certificate from a center validated by the Consejo Interuniversitario de Cataluña (CIC).

Those unable to provide the certificate will be issued a conditional admission status and will be required to provide the certificate at enrolment time.

Please check the master's degree website (section Admission > Admission criteria) for the specific documents required for the evaluation of admission criteria.

Master's Degree in Structural & Construction Engineering

The official transcript of records must show, not only information on the courses enroled, marks, number of credits/hour, final mark and mark system applied, but also the efficiency factor or parameter (that is, the number of time the student has enroled in each course).

In case this information is not available, it will be calculated, if the official transcript of records presents with enough data, as the quotient of passed credits and enroled credits (credits of the course multiplied by the number of times the course has been enroled) times 10. Sould there be no data available in the transcript of records, the student will be required to ask their university to provide a document informing on this parameter.
