The subject of External Practicum has the objective of completing the theoretical and practical learning of the students, in order to provide a complete and integral training; External Practicum is regulated by the rules on rights and duties of the students and the commitments of the collaborating entity.
The completion of the external practices and their passing guarantee:
For the completion of the external practices, it is a prerequisite that the UAB has signed an Educational Cooperation Agreement with its own university or with the collaborating entities.
In addition, specific agreements for educational cooperation will be signed to establish the regulatory framework for relations among each of the students enrolled, the collaborating entity and the UAB.
The framework of curricular external practices includes two modalities:
A. External practices subscribed between an external collaborating entity and the UAB.
In these cases the UAB signs a framework agreement for educational cooperation with the external collaborating entity and so many specific agreements for educational cooperation as students enrolled in this modality. It is an indispensable requirement that on the date of signature of the specific agreement, students certify the subscription to an accident insurance policy. School insurance is not enough. The complementary policy contracted by the UAB is valid and the student can choose it when registering. It is also compulsory to contract a civil liability policy.
B. External practices within the scope of the UAB, within Research Projects linked to the Department of Spanish Philology established by signing a Resolution between the coordinator of external practices and the UAB.
External practices outside the Department of Spanish Philology can be carried out during the first semester (September-January) or the second semester (February-May). Practices are not offered during the summer months.
The list of practices positions offered below works as a guide and responds to the offer of previous courses.
