Support and guidance

The support and guidance made available to students, once enrolled in the degree, respond to what is stated in section 4.3 of the Degree Verification Report.

The Master has a TUTORING PLAN and academic guidance. This plan aims to help Master's students successfully complete their training during their stay in the program, guiding them at all times and ensuring their independent learning. To this end, the following systems will be articulated through which all tutorial actions will be developed:

INDIVIDUAL TUTORING

• General tutoring

In addition to its own management and coordination functions, the Master's Management acts as a general tutor for students, advising them on academic issues related to the Master's, supporting the tutoring work carried out by the teachers of each of the subjects and, in particular, by the coordinator of the subjects. In addition, there is support from the Coordinators of the Specialty.

• Personalized tutoring

This tutorial function is shared and personalized through the tutors of the Master's Final Project and External Internship subjects. Three types of tutorials are developed in these areas:

– Academic tutoring for external internships This is carried out by a university lecturer of the Master's degree and will be responsible for supporting the training process in external internships and guiding the students during their training process within the University Campus. To do so, he/she will maintain regular periodic communications with his/her tutees and, when necessary, with the professional tutors.

– Professional mentoring for internships, is responsible for guiding the training process of students in the Master's collaborating internship centres. The professional tutor will be an employee of the internship centre, with a university degree related to the profile of the Master's areas of knowledge.

– Tutoring for the Master’s Final Project (TFM) that  It will be developed by a Master's teacher and will be responsible for supporting the training process and guiding students in the preparation of the TFM.

GROUP TUTORIALS

The Master's Director, or whoever he/she delegates to, will act as Coordinator of the Master's Tutoring Plan (PTM). This person will be responsible and the main agent of the group tutorial action. This coordination will use as a preferred means the holding of group sessions with both the tutors and the students. These group sessions will be distributed throughout the entire period of student training, paying special attention to the initial moments of incorporation into the Master's, in the intermediate moments at the end of the 1st year, and in the final months of the 2nd year.^is quarter and the final or finishing ones.

In short, through the different levels of teaching tutoring-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.

 INFORMATION RESOURCES.

 Students will have access to the Master's website and to the Virtual Classrooms for each subject, where they will be able to find all the relevant information about them. They will also have access to a Virtual Coordination Classroom for general communications and information. They will also have access to an Organisation Manual and General Guidelines for their information and better understanding of the Master's functioning and requirements.

OTHER GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS.

The ULL has an Information and Guidance Service (SIO) aimed at informing, advising and guiding future students and the university community in general. The SIO has three different areas: an information area (scholarships and grants, university training proposals, procedures, rights and duties, deadlines and procedures, etc.), a Psychopedagogical Advisory Service and a Legal Advisory Service. The SIO can be accessed through the following link: link. Also noteworthy in this section are:

• The Program for Support to Students with Specific Educational Support Needs (PAED) advises teachers in order to guarantee equal opportunities for students with disabilities, promoting their full integration in the development of their studies and in university life.
• The International Relations Office (ORI) manages international mobility programs.
• The Scholarship Section is the unit responsible for managing all study grants.
