Process of adaptation/extinction of the Master's Degree in Geotechnical Engineering (2016)

Since the 2025-2026 academic year the Master's Degree in Geotechnical Engineering (2016 program) will become extinct and will no longer accept new students. Students enrolled in these programs in extinction will have two choices:

1) To continue with their current Master's program in Geotechnical Engineering following the extinction time table below:
Year 2025-2026 2026-2027 2027-2028
1st Extraordinary classes + 2 exam calls + extraordinary exam calls Only extraordinary exam calls No extraordinary classes or exams
2nd Ordinary classes Extraordinary classes + 2 exam calls + extraordinary exam calls Only extraordinary exam calls
2) To undergo an adaptation to the new Master's Degree in Geotechnical Engineering (2025 program) following the adaptation table below:
