Admission Requirements
Admission criteria
Priority will be given to those candidates who present a technological profile (engineering degrees, architecture, computer science), in accordance with the nature of the Doctoral Program. In the event of vacancies, applicants who do not have a profile in the field of technology may be admitted. The CAPD will evaluate and resolve the admission in each case.
The criteria for admission of students, as well as the prioritization of applications received for participation in the doctoral program, will be based on criteria of merit and ability, and specifically will take into account aspects such as:
- Average mark of the academic transcript, both undergraduate and master's degree.
- Previous research experience, with special emphasis on experience within the thematic area of the doctoral program.
- Professional experience.
The CAPD, or the commission for the purpose in which it delegates, will hold interviews with the candidates in order to establish and clarify their merits.
