Admission Requirements

Can I apply? 

You can apply for the master’s programme if you: 

  • Hold a bachelor’s degree or legal equivalent. 
  • Are in the final year of a bachelor’s degree, applying on a conditional basis, and provide proof of completion by the last day of enrolment for the phase in which they applied, under penalty of exclusion. 
  • Hold a foreign higher education degree awarded after a first cycle of studies organised according to the Bologna Process by a signatory country. 
  • Hold a foreign higher education degree recognised by the Scientific and Technical Council (CTC) of ISEP as equivalent to a bachelor’s degree. 
  • Hold an academic, scientific, or professional record recognised by the Scientific and Technical Council (CTC) of ISEP as sufficient to access the master’s degree programme.

 

If you need the recognition by ISEP’s Scientific and Technical Council (CTC), you must request it in advance. Please contact the Academic Division or the programme director (contact available on the course webpage, right sidebar) for guidance. 

It is also possible to request degree recognition through DGES: https://www.dges.gov.pt/en/pagina/degree-and-diploma-recognition.
