- Admission conditions
In order to establish the conditions of access, the provisions of Royal Decree 822/2021, of 28 September, which regulates access and admission to official Master's degree courses, in article 18, will be taken into account.
- Admission profile
To access the official teaching of the Master's Degree in Neurophysiotherapy it will be necessary to be in possession of a university degree in Physiotherapy, or another of the same training characteristics issued by a higher education institution of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) that entitles the holder to access Master's degree courses in the country issuing the degree.
Likewise, graduates from educational systems outside the EHEA may also be admitted without the need to have their degrees recognised, subject to verification by the University that they accredit a level of training equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that they are recognised in the country issuing the degree for access to Master's degree courses. Access by this route does 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 studying the Master's degree.
- Admission criteria and tests
When demand exceeds supply, the following merit assessment will be applied:
- Recognition of credits
