Aims: The doctoral programme is a complementary training for graduates in the field of Education. The doctoral studies shall guarantee the acquisition of the basic competences established in the Spanish Qualifications Framework for Higher Education: systematic understanding of the field of study, and mastery of the research methods; ability to conceive, design or create, implement and adapt a substantial process of research or creation; ability to make critical and assessment analysis; synthesise new and complex ideas; ability to communicate with the academic and scientific community and with society in general about this field of knowledge; ability to promote, within academic and professional contexts, scientific, technological, social, artistic or cultural advances in a knowledge-based society.

Description: Its interest and academic, scientific or professional relevance is reflected in the following considerations. On the one hand, in previous experiences of the University in the teaching of programmes of similar characteristics. This proposal is a continuation of the currently existing Doctoral Studies in Education (RD1393/2007) whose origins are in the transformation of the studies previously implemented, specified in various Doctoral Programmes connected to the structure of degrees previous to the Bologna reform (Royal decree 778/1998 of 30 April), to be phased out (Doctoral Programme 120F of the Department of Comparative Education and Education History, “Social and Political Studies of Education; Doctoral Programme 100 B of the Department of Teaching and Scholastic Organisation, “Crisis of the Legitimacy of Thought and Educative Practices”, Doctoral Programme 270 D of the Department of Research Methods and Educational Diagnosis”, Educational Intervention: Methods, Evaluations, Diagnosis and Guidance”... and so on up to six. And on the other hand, the current proposal means a transformation from the current doctoral programme, the Doctoral Programme in Education (RD 1393/2007).
