During the mobility

At your arrival at the FME

One week before your arrival, you will have to send next documents by email (to relacions.internacionals.fme@upc.edu), in pdf:

  • Erasmus Credential or certificate of your Erasmus acceptation, signed by your home university. Document model: https://fme.upc.edu/en/do-you-want-to-study-at-fme/exchange-students/erasmuscredential.docx
  • Copy of the registration or enrolment at your home University (from semester/s you will perform the mobility).
  • Copy of European Health Insurance Card, and also a copy of a private insurance with the following coverages for the whole stay: Healthcare (including diagnostic tests and surgical interventions); Accidents (compensation for permanent disability and death compensation); Repatriation of mortal remains; Civil liability. If you do not have insurance yet, the UPC has an agreement with OnCampus (https://oncampus.es/en/seguros/oncampus-estudia/) and it offers a very complete insurance for the entire stay at a very affordable price.

When you arrive to our faculty next September, it is absolutely necessary to deliver next documents at the FME Academic Office:

 

Afterwards, we will hand you the student card if it is available (if not, we will deliver it as soon as we receive it).
Once this procedure is completed, you will meet the FME Vice Dean of International Relations in an interview. Later, you will finish your registration and enrol in FME courses.
Visit the International Mobility Office. You will get your "Welcome Pack" and get information about useful procedures.

 

If the duration of your stay is a full academic year (two semesters) or you plan to enhance your work experience through an internship in a company (regardless of the duration of your stay), you must start processing your NIE (Número de Identidad de Extranjero) at your arrival with help from the International Mobility Office.
