There are two calls for application. The same process will be followed for the acceptance of applicants in both calls. Yet, applicants from the 1st call that pass the selection process will have preference to be admitted.
The selection process is led by a selection committee comprised of members from the four universities that are part of the master’s consortium. This selection committee will evaluate the academic merits, curriculum vitae, and motivation letters of the students and later will be in charge of the interview process.
