Entryandadmissionrequirements
The general student access and admission conditions for all master's degrees are essentially thesameinthethreecoparticipatinguniversities. To access the Universidad Autnoma de Madrid (UAM) master's degree you will need an official Spanish university degree. University graduates can also access from foreign educational systems without the need to gain recognition of their degrees, provided that they certify an educational level equivalent to those corresponding to official Spanish university degreesandthattheywouldallowaccesstopostgraduateeducationinthecountryissuingthe degree. Theseconditionsareevidentlythesameforallstudents,irrespectiveoftheuniversitytheyare matriculatedin. In first place, it specifically requires having obtained a bachelor's degree or EHEA degree in Physics (or related studies), with basic training in Quantum Physics, Statistical Mechanics and SolidStatePhysics. Students must also certify a level of knowledge of English B1 or equivalent, which means they are capable of reading, understanding and writing scientific texts in English, as well as being abletounderstandaseminargiveninEnglish. Normally, the number of students that meet all admission requirements and request matriculationinthismaster'sdegreeislessthanthemaximumnumberofplacesoffered.Ifthe numbershouldbehigher, the main criteriaforassessingmeritsandstudentselectionshall be: yourpreviousstudentrecord;studiesinPhysicsbeforethoseinotherdisciplines;knowledgeof English and Spanish; their interest in undertaking a research career in the area; and personal interviewifnecessary.
