| General objectives of the program |
| The programme aims to train highly qualified professionals and researchers in the different fields of Earth Sciences. This training will enable them to continue researching the natural environment and the history, structure and functioning of the Earth, taking into account sustainability and the management of resources and territory. The programme enables students to learn and become familiar with the most modern techniques and tools for the three-dimensional characterisation of geological units and structures and the analogue and numerical modelling of geological processes. |

| Specific requirements and criteria for admission to the doctoral program and applicant merit rating |
The Academic Committee has set the following specific admission requirements for the standard admission pathways:
1) To be eligible for admission, candidates must hold one of the following qualifications:
a) University master's degree in Reservoir Geology and Geophysics, Mineral Resources and Geological Hazards, Paleontology, or Geological Engineering and Mining Engineering.
b) A master's degree issued by a higher education institution in the European Higher Education Area, of the same academic level and offering equivalent research training to the master's degrees indicated above, at the discretion of the Academic Committee. Holders of master's degrees in Geology, Earth Sciences or related subjects from other Spanish and European universities will receive the same consideration. For example, the master's degrees in Water, Marine Sciences, Crystallography and Crystallization, and Energy Engineering are all considered to provide the necessary preparation.
c) A qualification issued by an education system outside the European Higher Education Area, which shows that the holder has a level of education equivalent to the master's degrees listed in Section a.
2) Knowledge of English. Candidates must provide official certification of English language proficiency (at level B1 or a recognized equivalent). If this is not possible, a representative designed by the Academic Committee will assess the candidate's English language skills in a personal interview.
Candidate evaluation criteria and recommended applicant profile
The Academic Committee will consider the following aspects of applications from candidates who meet the general admission requirements, which are given in order of priority with the associated weighting:
1) Academic record and other academic merits. In particular, the Committee will consider whether the candidate has sufficient training to begin a thesis in an area related to earth sciences. If the applicant does not hold a master's degree from the UB, admission will depend particularly on the following aspects: a) The quality of the candidate's final project, and b) quality indicators for the master's degree and the university at which it was taken. Weighting: 50%
2) Curriculum vitae. Credit will be given for previous knowledge of the topics covered by the doctoral programme. Certified English language skills will be taken into consideration. Weighting: 35%
3) Statement of interest. The Committee will be given consideration to the candidate's reasons for applying to the doctoral programme in Earth Sciences. Weighting: 15%
Therefore, the recommended applicant profile is a student with a master's degree in Earth Sciences or a related discipline, with previous knowledge of one of the doctoral programme's research areas and the motivation needed for study at doctoral level. |
