  • Qualifications are structure as follows:


THE LOCAL GRADING SYSTEM AND ITS INTERNATIONAL EQUIVALENCE




  • Most courses still follow the old credit and grading system. It ranges from MH (outstanding or excellent, rarely given) to SS (fail). On final lists, grades are normally rounded off. The grading system is listed in the table below.

MH MATRICULA DE HONOR (10) A EXCELLENT

SB SOBRESALIENTE (9) B VERY GOOD

NT NOTABLE (7,5) C GOOD

AP APROBADO (5,5) D SATISFACTORY

SS SUSPENSO (2,5) FX FAIL







  • Our school is in the process to adapt the ECTS system. The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme, objectives preferably specified in terms of learning outcomes and competences to be acquired.




  • ECTS makes study programmes easy to read and compare for all students, local and foreign. ECTS facilitates mobility and academic recognition. ECTS helps universities to organise and revise their study programmes. ECTS can be used across a variety of programmes and modes of delivery. ECTS makes European higher education more attractive for students from other continents.




  • In cases where credits are transferred between European universities in student exchanges, ECTS grades can be used. It is good practice to add an ECTS grade, in particular in case of credit transfer

This Curriculum helps European ECTS students and other exchange international students to prepare their schedule at our institution.

The student should take into account that:
1 Spanish Credit = 1 ECTS

1 Spanish Credit = 10 lectures hours


Next to the “Cuatrimestre”, the student will find two numbers. The first one means the year-course, and the second one, the semester in which the course is offered. For example:
“Cuatrimestre 3-1” means that the course if offered in the 3rd year-First Semester.
