Profesional versus estudiante. Nuevo reto para una universidad nueva

Zusammenfassung

The new framing of the Spanish University System in the field of European Higher Education Area (EHEA) focuses attention on a university education where the protagonist of the whole process should be the student. With this framework, draw a profile of teaching primarily aimed at the acquisition of skills by students is a task easy to understand, especially if we consider the logical and desirable process of incorporating it into the labor market, but strangely these objectives are achieved in the evaluation of school curricula. This paper aims to draw attention to the importance and benefits of actively involving the student in the learning process and especially, the ease and efficiency with which the process can be assumed by current methodological programs with simple alterations in initial proposals; as demonstrated in the study developed. It also seeks a better approach profile that the University should make: professional or researcher. The responsibility of this institution represented in the socio-economic context in which it is framed, should encourage the establishment of minimum channels of understanding with the business network and the field of applied research, in order to build strong bridges to be able to make effective, now more than ever, the latent strength hides under the symbol I+D+i.
