Application Package

Selected students must be nominated by the International Office of their home University to the corresponding UPM School that signed the Interinstitutional Agreement.


Every UPM School has its own admission procedure. Generally this implies sending the Application Package to the International Office at the corresponding UPM School before the deadline.


Once enrolled, the student will receive the UPM Identity Card (giving free access to services like the library) and an UPM e-mail account

Language requirements

The language of study is mainly Spanish but please have a look at the different study programmes. When signing the student’s learning agreement, the home Institution guarantees that the student has sufficient knowledge of the Spanish language to follow courses and to pass exams. Generally, it is advisable to have a Spanish language level equivalent to, at least, A2/B1 (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).


Spanish language courses

UPM offers “Spanish language courses applied to science and technology” to all incoming students, through its Programme of Languages for Internationalization (PROLINTER).
Starting early September, UPM offers Spanish intensive language courses, that may be complemented with a course during the first or second semester.
You may find information about these courses at  Prolinter-UPM website.
