Equivalencia de estudios español – inglés

Traducir los estudios y las titulaciones no es tarea fácil, partiendo de la base de que el sistema educativo en el Reino Unido es bastante distinto al español, por lo que si queremos asegurarnos de la exactitud de lo que establezcamos en nuestro Currículum Vítae en lengua inglesa, es aconsejable que siempre que nos sea posible requiramos la revisión de un nativo o, mejor aún, contratemos los servicios de un profesional.

A continuación, veremos una utilísima tabla de equivalencias que os podrá servir de ayuda. En ella encontraréis la traducción al inglés de las principales titulaciones del sistema educativo español:
