Credit recognition consists in the inclusion in the curriculum of official education credits previously obtained through training or professional experience.

This is regulated in the Rules for the Recognition and Transfer of Credits in Master’s Degree Courses at the UB.

Training to be recognised

  1. Credits obtained in official courses previously completed, at the University of Barcelona or at any other university, are included in the new official courses, for the purpose of obtaining an official title.
  2. Credits received in higher education leading to other degrees covered by Article 34.1 of the University Law 6/2001.

Work and professional experience, provided that it is related to the competences of the degree being studied by the student.

The credit limit which may be recognised, on the basis of other qualifications and professional experience, may not, taken as a whole, exceed 15 % of the credits in the curriculum which the student is taking.

Only a percentage greater than 15 % may be recognised, up to the full credit of the curriculum, when the own degree has been extinguished and replaced by the official title, and thus be recorded in the official title record verified under the conditions established in articles 6.4 and 6.5 of Royal Ordinance 861/2010.
