* Alongside the application form, the UIC requires a preliminary Learning Agreement which states the chosen subject and includes the official stamp of the student's home university; this serves as a guarantee that the student has taken into consideration important academic issues such as the compatibility of the studies undertaken and the validation process.

To fill in the Learning Agreement, or the proposal of the subjects that the candidate wishes to study, each incoming candidate should consult, on the UIC website, the study programme and subjects offered within the host degree programme, as well as elective subjects offered by the University. Using the directory of programs at to locate the UIC degree program in which students propose to study, they should click on “More information on the website of these studies” and look for the academic curriculum. Clicking on the name of each subject brings up the corresponding study programme, which includes information on the timetable and the location of classes.

You can contact the academic coordinators of each department of the UIC to resolve any doubts concerning academic issues.

The Learning Agreement includes a section titled Changes to Originally Approved Learning Agreement. This section can be used during the first two weeks of each term to modify the initial selection of proposed subjects.
