Master's degree in Informatics Engineering

Definition

Dual training is based on the complementary principle of learning in an academic environment and in a professional environment. The student becomes the learner who studies. It is a form of training that takes place alternately between the university and the company.

The organization and definition of the tasks to be carried out by the student to meet the objectives is a process in which two tutors are involved: the company tutor and the university tutor. The first one is who deals with the student every day and has a complete knowledge of the activities that take place in the company. In this sense, the company tutor defines the tasks that the student will carry out as a training and work activity on the associated competencies. Due to the fact that the training is carried out in three semesters, these tasks and associated competencies are distributed over time, taking into account that, in each evaluation period, the student must work as many competencies as possible through the tasks. All this information, along with an explanation of the process to be followed throughout the semester and the established planning, is reflected in a document called "Learning Notebook". This work management tool also incorporates what the result has been from the point of view of the student and the tutors, together with the grade obtained. This qualification is broken down for each task and competence. As it is extracted from the process, the company tutor has a key role since it will be the one who analyzes the student's day-to-day life in order to study the evolution and, obviously, to be able to establish a value for the qualification of the work carried out. The university tutor will receive all the information provided by the company tutor in order to jointly validate the established qualifications.

Along with the "Learning Notebook", in each semester and, therefore, in each evaluation period, the student will make a report in which the work carried out, planned and defined in the notebook is described in detail.

During dual training, there is the possibility of doing the Master's Final Project as part of it. For this reason, the Learning Notebook contains the planning, monitoring and control of the work, ensuring monitoring by the company and university tutor.
