An official university master's should be distinguished from an executive or university-specific continuing-education qualification before comparing recognition or progression options.

Helpful answers
Practical answers to help you plan your course, destination and next intake.
Ask a counsellorSelected programme options include Master in Fundamental Principles of Data Science, MSc in International Business, Master in Institutions and Political Economy. These are selected examples, not the full catalogue. Availability, campus, mode of study and teaching language must be checked for your intake.
Applicants need a suitable recognised first degree and the academic preparation specified by the selected programme. Data Science expects mathematical and computational readiness; International Business is oriented towards relevant business graduates; political-economy research requires its own academic assessment. Foreign-degree access/equivalence checks and programme selection should be confirmed separately. The cited programmes are taught in English. Data Science lists B2 evidence; other programmes have their own accepted evidence and exemptions. These examples do not imply that all UB programmes are in English: Catalan and Spanish remain relevant elsewhere in the university and in local professional life.
The Data Science page gives an indicative 2026/27 rate of EUR 82 per credit for non-EU nationals not resident in Spain, or EUR 4,920 for 60 credits before other charges. International Business separately lists EUR 6,600 for its 60-credit 2026/27 non-EU category. These are different programme rates; do not present either as a university-wide fee or assume a study permit gives the ordinary resident exemption. Fees are not a university-wide average. Confirm the exact course, fee year, currency, deposit, extra charges and refund conditions before paying.
International Business states that applications for 2027/28 will open in January 2027; its closing date must be checked when the new call is published. The Data Science page's February 2026 round has passed. Some programme pages mix historic and forthcoming dates, so obtain confirmation of the intended intake before paying. The programmes follow academic-year entry. Data Science and International Business comprise 60 ECTS, while Institutions and Political Economy is a two-year/120-ECTS route. A one-year degree's fee cannot be compared with a two-year course total without checking the credit load. A semester start date is not an application closing date. Check scholarship and visa timelines separately.
