graduado superior (Barcelona)

English translation: higher degree

Spanish term or phrase: graduado superior (Barcelona)
No tengo contexto; es un título expedido:

La Rectora de la Universidad de Vic,
De acuerdo con las disposiciones legales vigentes, expide el presente
TÍTULO DE GRADUADO SUPERIOR EN TECNOLOGÍA DE SEGURIDAD Y CALIDAD INDUSTRIAL

He buscado títulos similares en Barcelona, y esto parece ser un título equivalente a un primer grado, es decir, que el próximo sería un Master's o algo por el estilo. Lo que me confunde es que en algunos sitios he encontrado una diferencia entre 'graduados/diplomados' y no sé si equivale a lo que en EEUU se conoce como degree vs. certificate.

Gracias por adelantado, gente hermosa.

Explanation:
I have actually always translated it as Higher Degree, but since Rob says above: Un título universitario de más de tres años, that is B. Sc. really, isn't it?

neutral  Daniel Trujillo: As reasonable as this is, sometimes I feel it better to go with a more literal translation to avoid devling into the world of academic equivalences, which simply makes no sense. Just my two cents.
