Laburpena

As a result of the guidelines from the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) of an education system based on learning more than teaching, this study emerges with the objective of assessing the performance of students intheoretical andpractice learningin Degree in Chemical Engineering and Degree in Environmental Sciences. The study was carried outon 208 total studentsand by selecting two common laboratory practicesand theoretical classesin both degrees. The research concluded the existence of statistically significant differences between the students of both degreesin all aspects evaluated, includingboth the theoretical and practice learning. In thisregard, the students of the Degree in Chemical Engineering showed a success rate which doubled the one got by the students of the Degree in Environmental Sciences, with a higher valuation in the academicperformanceby the students of the Degree in Chemical Engineering. Generally, the students obtained better results in the evaluation of the practice teaching than in the theoretical one, which strengthens the concept of the EHEA consisting of introducing a teaching more applied and focused on the obtaining of competences with future application in the job market.
