Abstract

The organization of the undergraduate and graduate education

The organization of the undergraduate and graduate education, in the frame of the European Space of Higher Studies (ESHS), is, at this moment, one of the most important challenges of the Spanish universities.Salto de línea After several years of debate to establish the normative frame where this transformation has to be developed, the moment has arrived to get to work and proceed immediately to the reorganization of titles and studies curricula. This paper contains several ideas and reflections about the elements considered most decisive to approach the transformation of the teachings contents, the way to teach them and to contribute to the correction of the huge imbalance which exists nowadays between the supply and the demand in education, as well as answering to the new social demands and to contribute to a more efficient working insertion of the college graduates. Through this article we take a look at the principal risks, the challenges and the academic opportunities which this transcendental reform brings forth, at the resource needs and the required finances, the need to reinforce the participation of all the members of the university community in this reform and to explain it adequately to the rest of the society.Salto de línea
