Access requirements
Admission to the Second Cycle Degree Course in 'Engineering for the Food Industry' requires a three-year university degree or diploma or another recognised foreign qualification.
Prior to enrolment, possession of the curricular requirements must be ascertained and the adequacy of personal preparation verified, in accordance with the procedures specified below and fully defined in the degree course teaching regulations.
In view of the international character of this degree course, a language proficiency certificate of at least level B2 is also required. The way in which knowledge of English language level B2 and the knowledge required for admission is tested is defined in the course regulations.

For graduates from abroad, the verification of curricular requirements may be carried out by considering appropriate equivalences between the course units followed with profit and those of the Engineering academic disciplines. Any curricular additions, in terms of university ECTS credits, must be approved by the Course Council and acquired prior to the verification of individual preparation.
For the acquisition of curricular integrations, the Department of Engineering and Architecture offers the possibility of enrolling in individual course units of study. Enrolment gives the right to attend the required course units, to take the examinations on the scheduled dates of the academic year and to obtain certification of the examinations passed with marks and the corresponding ECTS credits acquired.
2) Verification of the adequacy of personal preparation
The verification of personal preparation is always envisaged and separate from the fulfilment of curricular requirements. It is based on the evaluation of the grade obtained by the student, as specified in the course's Teaching Regulations.
