Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, cheating, plagiarism, and misrepresentation of a student's academic records or academic work. If academic dishonesty does take place, the student involved will receive an academic sanction that can entail the separation from the Program.

Disabilities. We are committed to providing accessible services, programs, and educational opportunities to all students. Students with qualifying disabilities may contact the director of the program who will guarantee that the policy procedures are implemented.

Diversity. We recognize the positive value of diversity and particularly encourages applications from women and candidates with underrepresented demographics regarding disability, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background, or other characteristics.

Code of conduct. CEMFI has a Code of conduct for all members of its community. Students should be familiar with its contents and abide by them. It can be found here.

María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence
In April 2017, CEMFI was awarded the María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence Distinction for the period 2017 - 2020. This highly selective distinction is granted by Spain’s National Research Agency to fund and accredit public research centers and units in any scientific field that demonstrate international scientific impact and leadership, and that actively collaborate with their social and business environment. The award provided EUR 2 million in funding for 2017 - 2020, along with additional PhD scholarships, to further strengthen CEMFI’s research initiatives and to expand and enhance its PhD program.

Quality Assurance
As part of its commitment to the highest academic standards, the program maintains an Internal Quality Guarantee System (IQGS) that continuously monitors and evaluates the quality of its graduate programs.
