(*) The Governing Council of the University of La Laguna determined that the final offer of places for this degree since its implementation would be 150.

The reasons why, despite the enrollment figures in previous academic years, the decision has been made to reduce the number of admissions to 160, at least for the first four years of the Bachelor's degree, are as follows: firstly, as all Bachelor's degrees in the Social and Legal Sciences branch will now last four years, it is likely that students who opted for a shorter degree (a three-year Diploma) to enter the job market sooner will no longer have that motivation; secondly, so that the number of places available more closely matches the demand for first-choice students who opt for this degree, which will lead to improved student performance rates. And thirdly, having a very high number of students per group is incompatible with the new teaching-learning method that the European Higher Education Area entails, provided that it is carried out correctly, with the aim of improving both teaching and student performance results.

Number of enrollment credits per student and academic period and, where applicable, permanence rules

Minimum number of European tuition credits per student and academic period

The minimum number of credits for which students beginning the degree must enroll is set annually by a Decree of the Ministry of Education, Universities, Culture, and Sports of the Government of the Canary Islands. Due to the high number of students who combine these studies with other activities, a full-time and part-time enrollment system will be implemented to facilitate the pursuit of these studies by those already in the labor market, to promote their promotion, or to consolidate their position.

  • Full-time enrollment: For the Degree in Labor Relations, the minimum number of credits to be taken in the first year is 60 ECTS credits.
  • Part-time enrollment: Students are also able to complete the degree part-time, for which the number of credits to be taken in the first year will be 30 ECTS.

Students who continue their studies may enroll in the number of ECTS credits and subjects they wish, in accordance with the regional regulations indicated.

The only applicable rules will be the academic obligations established in the curriculum: timing of studies, requirements or prerequisites, schedule compatibility of enrolled subjects, etc.

The ULL has general enrollment regulations, which take into account other student circumstances and are set out in a Circular from the General Secretariat published for each academic year in July. These regulations are, in turn, subject to the relevant regulations approved by the Autonomous Government or the University of La Laguna.

Rules of stay

The Organic Law on Universities (Law 6/2001, of December 21, amended by Organic Law 4/2007, of April 12) in its Article 46 attributes powers over permanence at the University to the Social Council. In this regard, the Social Council of the ULL has approved various resolutions since 1986 that remain in force to this day. At its meeting held on April 26, 1999, the creation of a "Committee on Student Permanence Standards" was approved. While the committee's work was pending completion, and for the purposes of establishing common criteria for the interpretation of the aforementioned Social Council resolutions by the Secretaries of the Centers, the General Secretariat, and the Social Council, a joint circular was issued, on a temporary basis, which has since then regulated the permanence of students at the University of La Laguna. This Circular establishes the retention requirements for first-year students (they must pass at least one subject), limits the number of exam sessions to a maximum of six regular exams, and regulates the "entitlement to a seventh session," which can be granted by the Social Council itself. The Social Council of La Laguna is currently regulating a new retention regime.

(*) Finally, the Social Council approved the regulatory regulations on the matter on June 25, 2012.

Special Educational Needs

Since the 1999/2000 academic year, the Vice-Rector's Office for Students at the University of La Laguna has implemented the Program for Students with Disabilities. The program aims to ensure equal opportunities for students with disabilities and other students, integrating them into the University in all aspects affecting their studies and university life. To this end, a series of projects and initiatives are carried out annually, summarized as follows:

  • Inform and advise students who are planning to enter the ULL.
  • Conduct a census of students with disabilities who study in our
  • University, to guarantee personalized attention.
  • Address students' integration problems, understand their needs, and respond to them.

  • Maintain direct contact and attention with all students who attend the Program.
  • Inform and advise teachers about their students' difficulties and the teaching methods that could overcome them.
  • Offer the technical aids needed by students with disabilities.
