Guarantee equal opportunities. In order to prevent students from having to abandon their studies due to lack of economic resources, we will continue to demand an adequate policy of fees and regional and state grants. We will also continue to promote our own grants and scholarships, as well as special attention to people with functional diversity.
Strengthen the relationship with the previous educational stages. We will maintain and reinforce the link with non-university education in order to combat the biases that occur in access to certain qualifications. We want to implement programmes that promote the participation of women in STEM degrees.
Boost student participation in university life. We will continue working to ensure that the University is a vital experience and one of personal growth for students, promoting socio-cultural activities and guidance and support services for their different academic and personal needs. We will promote the Lluís Vives Space as a meeting point for culture and participation, as well as a point of access to services of interest to students.
Promote student associations and student representation. We consider that student representation is an important value of our University. Its exercise is a process of empowering the student body to exercise active citizenship, both during their time at the university and in the future. Constant dialogue and co-governance with student representation are the roadmap to follow, and we will continue to strengthen the associationism as the driving force of the university.
Improving the employability of graduates. We must continue to build a university oriented towards improving the employability of students, so that they can develop their professional activity and contribute their knowledge, creativity and values to society. We will continue to expand and improve the programmes aimed at socio-occupational orientation, as well as the resources and services for students to adapt to the digital transformation. We will strengthen external training placements, implementing their management through a computer application, and we will promote international placements.
To develop transversal competences related to social and business entrepreneurship. We are committed to comprehensive training in entrepreneurship and we will promote the development of entrepreneurial projects for students, providing personalised technical advice, mentoring programmes and work spaces.
