Double degree programmes UdA-UOC

  /    /  Double degree programmes UdA-UOC

Andorra and Spain have each taken different measures to adapt to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). The first cycle university degrees of Andorra (Bachelor’s degrees) are programmes that consist of 180 European credits, representing a student’s 3-year full-time dedication, while in Spain, the first cycle university degrees adapted to the EHEA (grau in Catalan) are study programmes that consist of 240 European credits, representing a student’s 4 years full time dedication. Regarding second cycle programmes, which are called master’s degrees in both states, represent a total dedication (between the first and second cycles) of 300 credits (5 years full-time dedication), in that way, the Spanish master programmes consist of 60 European credits (1 year) and the Andorran master programmes of 120 European credits (2 years).

The University of Andorra (UdA) and the Open University of Catalonia (UOC) have established a double degree agreement defining, for the degrees offered jointly, itineraries that allow students who meet the academic requirements of each state, to attain a double degree. These itineraries allow students from both universities to obtain an official degree of Bachelor from the Andorran State by the UdA in fulfilling 180 credits and then obtaining an official degree in Spain through the UOC, by passing 60 additional credits.

The specific itineraries for each degree can be found at:
