Access requirements
The requirements for access to the Master’s Degree in Hydraulic Engineering and Environment include:
- Hold an official Spanish university degree, or a degree issued by a higher education institution of the European Higher Education Area that allows access to Master’s degree courses.
- Degrees from educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area may be accepted, after verifying that they accredit a level of education equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degree and allow access to postgraduate studies in the country of origin.
Admission for disabled students
For students with specific educational needs arising from a disability, appropriate support and counseling services will be established to assess the needs of curricular adaptations, itineraries or alternative studies, through the support of the CEDAT Foundation of the UPV.
The CEDAT Foundation of the UPV offers information and advice to members of the university community with disabilities, as well as accompaniment and support in the classroom. In addition, it provides technical aids for study to those members of the student body who, due to their special educational needs, require it. It also promotes and manages training and employment actions for this group, both inside and outside the UPV campuses, and offers different services from its Special Employment Center.
The foundation also carries out projects for the elimination of architectural and urban barriers, comprehensive accessibility plans, accessibility audits, project reviews, advice and design of ideal accessibility models.
