Master's Degree in Nautical Management and Maritime Transport

In accordance with the provisions of Article 18 of Royal Decree 822/2021, of September 28, which establishes the organization of university education and the quality assurance procedure, to access official master's degrees, it will be necessary to hold an official Spanish university degree, or, where applicable, another Master's degree, or another degree issued by a higher education institution in a country within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) that qualifies for access to Master's studies. Likewise, graduates from educational systems outside the EHEA may be admitted without the need for their degrees to be recognized, subject to verification by the university that they certify a level of training equivalent to the corresponding official Spanish university degrees and that they qualify for access to postgraduate studies in the country issuing the degree. Under no circumstances will admission via this route imply the recognition of the applicant's previous qualifications, nor will it be recognized for purposes other than the pursuit of the Master's degree. As this qualification provides access to the professional title of Merchant Marine Captain, the conditions for admission to the Master's degree must comply with the Resolution of the General Secretariat of Universities of January 20, 2016 (Official State Gazette of June 23), which publishes the Agreement of the Council of Universities establishing recommendations for universities to submit application forms for official qualifications in the fields of Nautical Sciences and Maritime Transport, Marine Technologies, Marine Electrical Engineering, and Naval Radioelectronics. In accordance with the provisions of section 4.2 of Annex V of the aforementioned Resolution, relating to official qualifications linked to the profession of Chief Engineer of the Merchant Navy, the conditions for access to the Master's Degree in Management in Nautical and Maritime Transport are as follows: 1. In order to access the Master's Degree linked to the profession of Captain of the Merchant Navy, the interested party must have previously acquired the skills listed in section 3 of Annex II of this Agreement establishing the recommendations for the verification of official university undergraduate degrees linked to the practice of the profession of Merchant Navy pilot, and their training must be in accordance with that established in section 5 of the aforementioned Annex II. 2. Likewise, access to the Master's Degree will be permitted when the interested party's undergraduate degree, even if it does not cover all the specific subjects of the undergraduate degree linked to the profession of Merchant Navy Pilot, complies with the proposed blocks and skills in accordance with Annex II of the aforementioned Agreement of the Council of Universities. 3 Likewise, those who hold any other degree may access this Master's degree, without prejudice to the establishment of any additional prior training that may be deemed necessary in this case.
