UAB Exchange Programme Master
UAB Exchange Programme Master
The UAB Exchange Programme (Programme Propi) in its call for a university master's degree provides students enrolled on a university master's degree at our university with a semester spent at a foreign university that does not participate in the Erasmus+ programme, as well as enabling them to subsequently recognise their studies abroad. This recognition of studies will be done following the Learning Agreement that the student will have agreed with their exchange coordinator before leaving.
The student pays the amount of their registration at the university of origin, and enjoys free registration at the host institution, except in cases where otherwise specified.
The exchange at the host university will not mean the right to obtain a degree at that institution.
Requirements
- Enrolment during the 2023/24 academic year at the UAB or at any of its centres affiliated to a university master's degree that has signed a detailed exchange agreement in the destinations chart
- Have sufficient knowledge of the academic language of the host university.
- Accredit the coverage of medical and civil liability insurance.
- Each school can add other specific requirements for its students. Check the website of your faculty.
- There are universities that request, as a requirement, a certain level of language (see the information in the list of destinations published in the 'Destinations' section of this website).
Selection criteris:
- The student's academic record. The qualification of the previous studies will be used. Students who have not completed previous studies at the UAB, must submit to the Academic Management of their faculty/centre a copy of their bachelor's/bachelor's degree file so that the scale can be calculated. The scale to be applied is obtained from the sum of the qualified credits multiplied by the value of their grade in scale from 0 to 10 and divided by the total number of qualified credits. Only the grade obtained in the last call will be taken into account, including the No Presented and the No Evaluable, which will be computed with a numerical grade of 0.
- Language level accreditation will be an element that will count up to a maximum of 2 points during the selection process when comparing the applications submitted. The accreditation of language level must be delivered to the Academic Management of the center where the student studies while the application period is open. All students who wish to participate in an Erasmus+ study stay and who do not have any document that proves their level of language may take a test at the Language Service that will allow them to obtain a certificate of accreditation of linguistic knowledge.
- Applications from students who, having obtained a place in a previous call, have waived for unjustified reasons or failed to meet the requested requirements, will be moved to the last place on the list of applications.
- Applications from students who have previously completed an exchange stay in the same program will be considered only if the places requested are vacancies. Under no circumstances will any scholarships be awarded again.
- In the event that they consider it necessary, schools may add other specific requirements for their students. Check the website of your faculty.
Depending on the budget for the 2023/24 academic year, the scholarships available will be distributed among students who have obtained a place within the framework of the UAB Exchange Programme.
The criteria that will be used to award these grants, in addition to the resulting mark used for selection, will be the strategic importance for the university.
The UAB has its own budget line for grants, the amounts of which will depend on the period that the student is at the host university:
- One semester: €750
- Stays equal to or less than 3 months: €500
The grant will be paid in two instalments: the first payment will correspond to 80% of the financial aid and will be paid once the student has justified the arrival at the destination center. The second payment will be the remaining 20%, it will be made upon the return of the student and once he has submitted all the required documentation.
NOTICE TO APPLICANTS: on 30 November of the course following that of the stay, who has not submitted the required documentation, will be required to refund the amount paid to them.
