Support and guidance
The support and guidance provided to students once they have enrolled in the degree are in accordance with the provisions of section 4.3 of the Degree Verification Report and have been developed since the implementation of the master's degree. The support and guidance actions for students are mainly focused on:
- Initial briefing: At the beginning of each academic year, an opening and information session is held by the Master's teaching team. Details of the functioning of the Faculty where the degree is taught are explained (computer rooms, bibliographical research and library loans, study rooms, etc.) and general guidelines are given on the study plan and other academic issues considered to be of interest to students (e.g., permanence regulations, evaluations, calls, etc.).
- Using virtual collaboration environments: In order to facilitate communication, information and coordination with students, there are virtual classrooms for the degree and its subjects.
Through the different levels of teaching coordination (Academic Director, Subject Coordinator, Master's Final Project Tutor, External Internship Tutor, etc.) a direct and continuous relationship is maintained with the students, which allows the detection and diagnosis of causes of difficulties in academic performance and learning processes, and allows their scope and effectiveness to be assessed, transferring them to the Academic Committee, where appropriate.
