Access requirements
The mandatory requirements to be provided are the following:
- Official Spanish or European Union university degree.
- Official University Degree from non-EU countries, prior Rectoral Resolution of Verification of Equivalence. The issuance of this resolution requires that, in addition to providing the degree, the applicant must also provide a letter from his/her home university certifying that the studies completed enable him/her to pursue a postgraduate degree in his/her country, as well as payment of the corresponding fee.
- Students coming from countries where Spanish is not an official language must provide a B2 language proficiency certificate recognized by the Association of Centers for Languages in Higher Education (ACLES).
In accordance with Royal Decree 822/2021, of September 28, which establishes the organization of official university education, in order to access official Master’s degree courses it will be necessary to hold an official Spanish university degree or another degree issued by a higher education institution belonging to another member state of the European Higher Education Area which entitles the holder to access Master’s degree courses in that country.
Likewise, graduates from educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area may be admitted without the need for the homologation of their degrees, after verification by the University that they accredit a level of training equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that they qualify in the country issuing the degree for access to postgraduate studies. Access by this route will not imply, in any case, the homologation of the previous degree held by the interested party, nor its recognition for purposes other than that of taking the Master’s degree.
Recommendations
For access to the master’s degree it is recommended to have:
- In-depth knowledge of materials, instruments, techniques, procedures and processes applied to the field of creation, production, experimentation and research in Contemporary Art.
- Knowledge of the aesthetic theories and fundamental trends of Contemporary Art with special attention to methodological and discursive strategies and their specific terminology.
- Knowledge of exhibition contexts and art markets as well as other professional fields.
- Knowledge of the business environment and marketing strategies related to the areas of professional development.
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.
General information on access can be found in the Alumni Service – Access
