Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2022-23

Las prácticas en empresa constituyen una actividad de naturaleza formativa realizada por los estudiantes universitarios y supervisada por la Universidad, cuyo objetivo es permitir aplicar y complementar los conocimientos adquiridos en su formación académica, favoreciendo la adquisición de competencias que les preparen para el ejercicio de actividades profesionales, faciliten su empleabilidad y fomenten su capacidad de emprendimiento.

Esta asignatura se encuentra situada en el 4º curso del plan de estudios del grado en Ingeniería Multimedia. Se divide en “Prácticas Externas I” y “Prácticas Externas II” pudiéndose cursar en el primer y/o segundo cuatrimestre respectivamente. Cada una de ellas supone 6 créditos ECTS, pudiendo el estudiante cursar una u otra asignatura, según el período en el que realice las prácticas. También es posible cursar ambas asignaturas con lo que el estudiante realizaría 12 créditos ECTS de prácticas en empresa.
