Do I have the option to register as a part-time student?

Although this 60-credit Master’s degree has been scheduled to be completed in one academic year for full-time students, you can register for fewer subjects if you cannot devote so much time, provided you enrol for a minimum of 15 credits (e.g. 5 subjects of 3 credits).

Can previous learning or experience be recognised?

In-company internships can be taken as part of the optional subjects. These internships can also be recognised as work experience, although certain conditions must be met for this to be the case. 

In addition, students of the University of Alicante Expert Course in Social Networks can apply for recognition of our optional subject Social Media

In short, a student who has the title of this expert and who has sufficient work activity in one of the profiles related to the Master, according to regulations, would have all the elective covered.  

If you are in any of these situations, and you have questions about the procedures to follow, please check our section on previous learning recognition (PLR) on this website.
