Official Master's degrees

Based on Royal Decree 1393/2007, Bachelor’s degree programmes must provide students with sufficient basic academic training for them to work professionally or keep studying and pursue an official Master’s degree. Master’s degrees are advanced specialised, multidisciplinary training whose goal is either academic and professional specialisation or the start of research activities. Official Master’s degrees are needed to gain admission into doctoral studies, whose purpose is to provide advanced research training in which the candidate earns a doctoral degree by writing a doctoral thesis.

Official Master’s degrees have been adapted to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and are organised into ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) credits, a system of compatible credits, comparable criteria and methodologies and similar length for European degrees whose goal is to facilitate and promote mobility and students’ inclusion in the European job market. Master’s degrees are at least 60 credits and at most 120 credits long, equivalent to one or two academic years.

ECTS credits are characterised by revolving around students as the drivers of their learning process. Each credit is equivalent to 25 hours of instruction, and they are used to count class time (theoretical and practical), individual study, participation in seminars, projects, internships and testing. During one academic year, a student can earn up to 60 credits if studying full-time and 30 if studying part-time.

The official Master’s degrees at the Blanquerna-URL Faculty of Psychology, Education and Sport Sciences are targeted at holders of Bachelor’s degrees as well as professionals who need to engage in lifelong learning. The Master’s degrees are professional in orientation, and they examine topics and subjects that require specialised treatment. Characteristics of the official Master’s degrees within the Faculty are:

  • Faculty made up of researchers and instructors both from the Faculty and from other universities in Spain and by prestigious practising professionals. All instructors are notable representatives of the course’s subject of study.
  • Programmes with institutional and business support, coordinated by renowned researchers and professionals.
  • A limited number of students in order to ensure the quality of instruction, participation and personalised treatment.
  • Agreements and contracts with institutions and companies that guarantee internships or professional development and/or research opportunities

Process of applying for admission

To gain admission into official Master’s degree programmes, applicants must hold an official degree from a Spanish university or another degree issued by a higher education institution within the European Higher Education Area which in the issuing country authorises the holder of this degree to pursue a Master’s degree.

Likewise, holders of Bachelor’s degrees from outside the European Higher Education Area may gain admission to Master’s degree programmes without the need to have their degrees officially approved as long as the university can previously accredit a level of training equivalent to the corresponding Spanish official university degrees which in the issuing country authorise the holder of this degree to pursue a post-graduate degree. Admission by this means in no way entails approval of the previous degree or its recognition for purposes other than pursuing a Master’s degree.

The process of applying for admission has two stages: 

  1. Pre-enrolment: Students may pre-enrol either in person in the faculty or online. When they enrol, the applicant will receive the corresponding receipt indicating the day, time and venue for the entrance examination, pre-enrolment code and pre-enrolment information.

  2. Enrolment: This implies acceptance of the place after being assigned it.

Online application

The form found at the following link must be filled out following the procedure indicated. By pre-enrolling online, the pre-enrolment fee (€95) must be paid by credit or debit card using a secure, confidential process via Catalunya Caixa. 

Before the deadline of the pre-enrolment process has elapsed, the following documentation must be submitted:

  • Photocopy of Spanish national ID (DNI), passport or Spanish foreign ID (NIE)
  • Academic record (original or certified copy) with the marks on the courses taken and the grade point average from the degree, if available when pre-enrolling or applying for the programme.
    • Applicants with degrees earned outside Spain: certified issued by the authorised body (university, embassy, consulate) accrediting that the previous degrees authorise the applicant to engage in Master’s or post-graduate studies in the country issuing the degree.
  • Brief curriculum vitae showing training and professional experience related to the degree programme applied for.

Prior to the pre-enrolment deadline, candidates who apply for the Official Master’s Degree in General Health Psychology must accredit that they have taken 90 ECTS credits specifically in the field of healthcare through the corresponding academic certificate issued by the home university and have a degree in Psychology or studies approved by the Spanish State. 

In-person application

Please provide the Student Information and Guidance Service with the following documentation:

  • Photocopy of Spanish national ID (DNI)
  • Academic record (original or certified copy) with the marks on the courses taken and the grade point average from the degree, if available when applying for the programme
    • Applicants with degrees earned outside Spain: certified issued by the authorised body (university, embassy, consulate) accrediting that the previous degrees authorise the applicant to engage in Master’s or post-graduate studies in the country issuing the degree.
  • Brief curriculum vitae showing training and professional experience related to the degree programme applied for.
  • €95 for the pre-enrolment fee. This fee may be paid by credit or debit card.

Prior to the pre-enrolment deadline, candidates who apply for the Official Master’s Degree in General Health Psychology must accredit that they have taken 90 ECTS credits specifically in the field of healthcare through the corresponding academic certificate issued by the home university and have a degree in Psychology or studies approved by the Spanish State.

 

International students

It is the student’s responsibility to have all the official documentation needed to live in Spain while they study at the university.

Applicants may request pre-admission documents along with their pre-enrolment receipt in order to begin the paperwork needed to secure visas, scholarships or any other procedure. This document in no way guarantees the student’s place in the programme if all the other entrance and admission requirements are not met.

Once the applicant has been admitted and has officially enrolled, if desired they may request a letter of admission from the Academic Secretary's Office after paying the corresponding fee.

Please feel free to contact the Student Information and Guidance Service for further information.
