Pre-registration period open for our University Master's Degrees on development and cooperation

The pre-registration period for the official Master's Degree in Development and International Cooperation and the official Master's Degree in Globalization and Development, both coordinated by the Hegoa Institute and the Department of Applied Economics of the UPV/EHU, opened on 3 March. On 22 May, the registration period for the online master’s degree in International Cooperation and Emancipatory Education will also open. 

The University Master's Degree in Development and International Cooperation is aimed at training people specialized in international cooperation for development. Its references are equity and the fight against poverty, human development and sustainability. It includes mandatory curricular internships in projects in Latin America, Africa, Asia or Europe.

The University Master's Degree in Globalization and Development is aimed at academic specialization: the training of researchers in the phenomenon of globalization and development processes. It is interdisciplinary in nature and is part of the Development Studies tradition. It includes the possibility of extracurricular internships.

In addition to these two official degrees, Hegoa and the UPV/EHU coordinate the Master’s in Lifelong Learning in International Cooperation and Emancipatory Education. This degree is taught through the virtual campus and aims to train people to promote critical development cooperation by strengthening political subjects capable of promoting social justice and emancipatory education. 

Pre-registration, admission and reservation of places for the official master's degrees for the 2025/2026 academic year can be made through the UPV/EHU website.

The three degrees are financially supported by the Basque Agency for Development Cooperation / Garapenerako Lankidetzaren Euskal Agentzia.
