Master on libre software will be official in 2010-2011

We've just been informed that our master's degree on libre software has been approved by ANECA as an official program (master universitario). The master's, which is in fact an improved version of our current program, is expected to be offered as official in 2010-2011. The current program (which is an own degree offered by URJC) has been running since 2007-2008 (Galician edition) and 2008-2009 (Madrid edition). Enrollment for 2009-2010 edition is still open.
