Here I have several questions from a student from
the Double Master ICCP + Economics related to the Double Master with Berlin.
The answers are of interest both for students from the double master and for the
others. They also apply for the Double Master with France.
“When may students from the Double Master ICCP +
Economics apply for the Double Master with SRH or IBS?” In November of their second year. For example,
students who enrolled the Double Master ICCP + Economics in 2015/2016 should apply
for the Double Master with IBS or SRH this week (until November 11) for a third
year abroad, during the course in 2017/2018.
“If I were to be accepted to go to Berlin, I would not
have to enroll the Master’s thesis module of Master in Economics at Granada
since I will do it in Berlin. Does this mean that I do not have to attend the 8
compulsory seminars?”
No, not exactly. You'll have to prepare and defend
a Master’s thesis in Granada and another one in Berlin.
Students from UGR admitted in the Double
degree will pay (and enroll) the credits corresponding to the master’s thesis
(TFM) at UGR during the course they realize in
order to meet the
requirement of being a student of the UGR during their stay abroad. However, we
allow students to prepare and defend their TFM during the previous year. Although
the mark will only be recorded in the following year once they finish their
stay abroad. Attendance at seminars is computed on 1 point out of 10 in the
evaluation of TFM presented in the Master in Economics at Granada so you must
attend these seminars before you go.
“In Berlin I will attend several courses and TFM, what
tuition should pay at SRH and at UGR?”
During the year in Berlin students from UGR only
pay tuitions corresponding with TFM at UGR (8 ECTS). You have to take different
courses in SRH including a master’s thesis of 20 ECTS (see description:
http://masteres.ugr.es/ugrme/pages/info_academica/berlin/programUGR)
The same occurs at IBS (France) but the thesis is
15 ECTS and 15 ECTS of internships (see
http://masteres.ugr.es/ugrme/pages/info_academica/ibs/pd2)
“It is indicated on the website of the Master that
students will be responsible for their costs abroad the partner universities will seek to
obtain funds to assist in the financing of the mobility periods, especially
under the Erasmus programme. So can I obtain an Erasmus grant to fund my stay?
What should I do to get that grant?”
The student does not have to pay
tuition fees abroad (only the tuition fees at UGR) but they have to pay any fees legally established for the issuing
of the degree certificate, travel costs, insurance, etc.
All students accepted into one of the Double Master will receive the Erasmus fund but it does not cover the months in internships. Once accepted into the Double Master, the international relations department of UGR awards the scholarships. You do not have to apply to it.
