In the following sections you can consult how to submit the required documentation to access any UPC master's degree, before the completion of your studies.

ATTENTION!

UPC bachelor's degree students do not need to submit any of the documents listed below.
You will not be able to obtain your master's degree or request academic transcripts until you have submitted all the required documentation.
It is essential to read this page carefully and in full to ensure you follow all the instructions correctly.

Documentation to be uploaded at e-Secretaria > Document input

Please take into account that:

Only academic documents in Spanish, Catalan or English are accepted. For other languages, it is necessary to provide the original document and a sworn translation into one of the indicated languages.
You can only attach the degree (or document that replaces it) and the transcript of records if they are certified electronic copies. That is, they contain the secure verification code (cvs) and/or QR code to verify their authenticity in the university's electronic office (or the body that has legalized or or stamped the apostille in the documents issued outside the European Union).
You only need to submit the B2 (or higher) English level certificate in the case of the following master's degrees:
- MsD in Civil Engineering-Professional track
- MsD in Numerical Methods in Engineering
- Urban Mobility
Check that you have chosen the correct concept (Document Type) for each document, in the drop-down menu at e-Secretaria > Document input.
