The Universidad Carlos III in Madrid (UC3M) is listed as one of the best Spanish institutions to study a postgraduate degree, according to the new 250 MASTER’S ranking published by the newspaper El Mundo in its fifteenth edition. According to the results of this report, the UC3M has 23 master's degrees (three more than last year) in the top five positions among the 50 specializations that are assessed.

This guide sets out 250 postgraduate programmes, selected from more than one thousand options analysed. The goal is to make the choice of the future student easier. Only degrees that meet the following requirements have been taken into account: they must be face-to-face programmes, taught in Spain, have a minimum duration of 500 teaching hours and have at least four editions already completed. This last feature (which has been taught over the last five years) excludes from this ranking a good number of Master’s courses from the UC3M that have been launched during this period.

The UC3M increases the number of Master’s courses in the new edition of this ranking, with a total of 23 degrees that are listed below:
