Previous to the registration


Students must contact their respective tutors.

Tutors will be responsible for advicing the student about the master courses they must take, including those already decided by the Master Academic Commission (CAIMIA).

Tutors may propose modifications in the list of complementary courses, previously agreed with the CAIMIA.

Process for the registration

  1. Students hand in the registration authorisation document specifying the courses taken per semester, signed by their tutor, at the CS administrative department before the deadline (see the calendar).
  2. The FIB administrative department fixes the date and hour where the registration will take place, and determines the deadlines for registration modifications or cancellations.
  3. For the first registration, be sure to have with you the required documentation, original (and legalized/translated if required) and copies

This process must be done every semester.
