Registration request for an additional TU
Master's educational contract
The pedagogical registration is the pedagogical contract (choice of teaching units).
This document is to be completed by the heads of the fields, specialties or courses, who will forward it to the Master school. Registration must be made for both even and odd-numbered semesters.
Registration is required to sit exams.
Students who fail to sit exams for teaching units selected in their teaching contract will receive an "unjustified absence" for those exams.
Validation of prior learning
Validation of higher education
The VES is a system that enables students to obtain a diploma in whole or in part, thanks to the recognition of studies undertaken in France or abroad.
VES applications are managed by the Faculty of Science's Schooling Department: fds.mitra@umontpellier.fr
TARGET AUDIENCE :
Anyone who has completed higher education at a private or public training institution or organization in France or abroad.
CERTIFICATION AVAILABLE THROUGH VES
All courses are open to VES: with the exception of doctorates and intermediate diplomas (Deug and Maîtrise).
For help with your research, please contact the SCUIO IP where training specialists will be happy to help.
Take a look at our range of training courses and find out more about the objectives and target skills.
VES APPLICATION STEPS
File creation
Send this file by e-mail to the Faculty of Science's Education Department: fds.mitra@umontpellier.fr
In the same calendar year, you can submit 3 VES applications for different diplomas, regardless of the establishment.
You can only submit one application for the same diploma in the same calendar year.
Your file includes :
- Diplomas, certifications and training certificates
- Any other supporting documents enabling the jury to assess the nature and level of your studies.
The component examines the admissibility of your application, processes it, collects the VES application fee and organizes the jury.
- Completed applications must be submitted NO LATER THAN April 30.
- The fee does not guarantee that the VES will be granted; it is a processing fee to enable the jury to study your application. They are non-refundable, whatever the jury's decision.
Interview with the validation panel
The validation jury meets in June. It examines your file and interviews you. It determines the knowledge and skills required for equivalence with the diploma in question.
The deliberation may give rise to either :
- to full validation
- to partial validation
- to refusal
Recommendations and advice are given at the end of the interview.
Request validation
The Faculty of Science forwards your application and the jury's decision to the Direction des Formations et Enseignements (DFE).
It sends you your notification, issues your certificate of achievement, and then your diploma if validation is complete.
If the validation is partial, it registers the validated Teaching Units.
Equivalences TU LMD4 / LMD5
We're entering a new accreditation (LMD5 2021-2026) and some of you started your courses in the previous one (LMD4 2014-2021).
Programs change, and sometimes so do compensation rules
Repeaters in particular will be able to keep TU validated last year when they are equivalent to this year's.
Students will see the TU equivalences they have obtained, along with their grades and associated ECTS, automatically transferred to their learning contracts.
Deferral of validated semesters is not automatic. Course directors will validate these semesters on a case-by-case basis (according to the new compensation rules) and will request the carryover from the Registrar's Office.
Notice of further studies
You are a Bachelor 3 student and would like to apply for a Master's degree.
Some universities will ask you for a document entitled "Avis de poursuite d'études", when you apply on the MonMaster platform.
You can use the document below, which should be completed and sent to the person in charge of your degree course.
