Access and admission

  • Access to the Master's degree that qualifies for the practice of the profession of Civil Engineer, Canals and Ports will be granted to those who have previously acquired the competencies set out in section 3 of Ministerial Order CIN/307/2009, which establishes the requirements for the verification of official university degrees that qualify for the practice of the profession of Technical Engineer of Public Works, and whose training is in accordance with that established in section 5 of the aforementioned Ministerial Order.

  • Likewise, access to the master's degree will be allowed when the interested party's degree degree proves that they have completed the basic training module and the common module to the branch, even if they do not cover a complete block of the specific technology module and do cover 48 credits of those offered in the set of blocks of said module of a degree that qualifies for the exercise of Technical Engineer of Public Works, in accordance with the aforementioned Ministerial Order.

In the case of graduates from educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area who do not have their foreign degree officially recognized, the Academic Committee of the center responsible for the master's program may request the documentation necessary to verify that the specific conditions for access to this master's program with the powers described and set out in Order CIN/309/2009 are met, including the official recognition of the degree if it cannot be determined with certainty that the foreign degree meets the access requirements.

According to the regulations of the University of Seville for university master's degrees, the admission process for the master's degree is the responsibility of the center responsible for the master's degree, which will establish the selection criteria, always respecting the principles of merit and equal opportunities.

If there are more applications than places available, they will be ranked according to an assessment that will take into account the following criteria:

  • Academic record.

  • The correspondence between the competencies of the student's prior degree and the competencies of this Master's program will be assessed, evaluating the suitability of the academic curriculum content (based on a review of the curricula completed) to the competencies to be acquired in the Master's program. This assessment will be carried out by the Master's Academic Committee.  

  • Curriculum Vitae, taking into account the student's work experience and any additional studies they may have, and in particular, their language skills. This assessment will be carried out by the Master's Academic Committee.

Once the applicants have been ranked according to the aforementioned evaluation criteria, all applicants will be admitted according to the number of available places, strictly in order of priority. In the event of withdrawals, applicants not initially selected may be considered for admission again, again according to their order of merit.

Specifically, the Academic Commission will give priority to graduates in Civil Engineering from the University of Seville, given that this degree has been used as a reference for the design of the curriculum of the Master's Degree in Civil Engineering, Canals and Ports.

The admission and enrollment procedure is regulated by the Single Andalusian District Agreement.
