Recognition of institutional activities

According to the Rules for the recognition and transfer of credits in the official bachelor's degree courses of the University of Barcelona, undergraduates can request recognition of their participation in university institutional activities of a cultural, sports, student representation, solidarity and cooperation nature.

The list of activities eligible for credit includes those initiatives promoted from communication studies, closely connected with their training mission; on the understanding that these not only require the active participation of students with their skills and skills acquired within the framework of their training plan, but also complement their proper application and intensification. This is why the offer of places excludes students from re-entry.

Do you want to be part of the group supporting the activities of the Faculty?

The Support Student is a college-trained student.

 

Students will be involved in the development of the activities that the Faculty of Philology and Communication organizes throughout the course in relation to topics such as recruiting new students, bringing pupils into the business world with a view to their later integration into the world of work, welcoming and supporting new undergraduate students from secondary education, etc.

With the development of this activity, the student will develop a number of basic skills specific to his or her studies and training: team skills, acquisition of basic skills in the use of ICT and/or more specific techniques, development of communication and interpersonal skills, carrying out tasks entrusted to him or her and respecting appropriate rules of conduct in the public workplace.

With the training achieved during the two courses of activity duration, the student will receive a recognition of 6 ECTS credits, which, in the framework of the recognition of institutional activities, may incorporate into his degree file as an alternative option to an optional subject of his or her itinerary.

Coral as a training project

Participation in the chorale is considered from an eminently formative point of view from the moment the repertoire of each season is selected. Each new project is supported by formative musical criteria, which span several eras and artistic styles in a complementary, progressive, ongoing course.

Also formative is the approach that the choral director Oscar Salvador, professional choral director, takes to rehearsals, inserting elements of postural self-knowledge (development of postural habits and healthy vowels), on the one hand; on the other hand, each piece in program makes a didactic presentation in itself (composer, gender, style, characteristics, self-meaning and history).

Finally, it is formative from a humanistic point of view, the same opportunity to engage in interpersonal and inter-generational relations as the chorale offers, with people of very diverse professional backgrounds and seasons. Within the choir, singing members relate from you to you in a human relationship of respect and awareness of the value of the institutional representation of the faculty.

The Coral of the Faculty of Philology and Communication, as it could not otherwise, adds as added value the multilingual and multicultural character of its programme.

 

Formative recognition in ECTS credits

Just as participation in other chorales (UBs) has already been recognised by the UB as complementary training activity, the Academic Commission of the Faculty of Philology and Communication has approved the recognition of ECTS credits to students of their degrees participating in this activity.

Requirements:

' Regular assistance for trials (minimum assistance control of 80%).

. Compulsory attendance at concerts or institutional musical interventions.

. Renewable course participation in progress.

, Participation in public events with due decorum involving the value of institutional representation, caring for the personal aspect of the equipment of choral uniform.

 

Credit recognition:

' Recognition of 6 ECTS credits in total after the fulfillment of a minimum of two years of participation (3 ECTS credits for accredited participation during an academic year).

 

Procedure

At the end of the participation in the activities of the Coral during an academic year, its controller will sign a document that confirms the development of the activity. With this certification, the student can contact the Secretariat of the Faculty and request the formal recognition of the credits, which, once recognized, will be incorporated into their bachelor's degree file through their registration.

The amount of the license plate for recognised credits corresponds to 15% of the amount established at each time by the Government of Catalonia's Price Decree.

By agreement of the Faculty Academic Commission, dated 6 March 2020, the possibility of credit recognition will apply to students who can accredit their participation according to the planned system, from the 2019-20 course.

The Theatre Classroom as a training project

University theatre from its inception has been an essential part of student development of all teachings, as well as being a social meeting point and an engine for cultural dynamition of higher education institutions. METADRAMA, the Theatre Classroom of the Faculty of Philology and Communication, unlike other University Theatre Classrooms, is characterized by belonging to a faculty where theater from its textual and spectacular side is part of the regulated curriculum and therefore we can provide added value of quality. For example, we organise workshops of ecdotics of theatrical texts, recover literary heritage and disseminate classics of dramatic literature.

Since its foundation in 2011, Professor Gaston Gilabert has an accredited experience of teaching and research on theatre history, but also of theatrical writing, adaptation and stage direction.

In the Theatre Room we work with the word, body, music and illusion of creating a cultural project in a team. We are the only stable theater group in the Faculty of Philology and Communication designed for student participation regardless of the specific degrees, cycles or departments to which they belong. The Theatre Room is open to any student who wants to perform, but also to those who want to deal with scenery, music, lighting, costumes, etc. In addition, we all learn from everything, because awareness of the effort involved in a common project requires various artistic and technical skills is encouraged.

 

Formative recognition in ECTS credits

Just as participation in other chorales (UBs) has already been recognised by the UB as a complementary training activity, the Academic Commission of the Faculty of Philology and Communication has approved the recognition of ECTS credits to students of their degrees participating in this activity.

Requirements:

' Regular assistance for trials (minimum assistance control of 80%).

. Mandatory attendance at theatrical performances.

. Renewable course participation in progress.

 

Credit recognition:

' Recognition of 6 ECTS credits in total after the fulfillment of a minimum of two years of participation (3 ECTS credits for accredited participation during an academic year).

 

Procedure

When the participation in the theater class's activities ends during an academic year, its manager will sign a document that confirms the activity's development. With this certification, the student can contact the Secretariat of the Faculty and request the formal recognition of the credits, which, once recognized, will be incorporated into his bachelor's degree file through his registration.

The amount of the license plate for recognised credits corresponds to 15% of the amount established at each time by the Government of Catalonia's Price Decree.

By agreement of the Faculty Academic Commission, dated 6 March 2020, the possibility of credit recognition will apply to students who can accredit their participation according to the planned system, from the 2019-20 course.

Students will also be able to apply for academic recognition of student representation activities in the cases of elected and active members of the Studies Council, the Faculty Board, the Board's delegated committees, the Cloister, the Governing Council, the delegated committees of the Governing Council and the boards of directors of the major colleges. It will be recognised at a rate of 1.5 ECTS credits per mandate and body/committee, with an accredited participation of at least 80% of sessions

Once the activity is completed, the student will have to make his or her application online, accompanied by the accrediting documentation of the performance and overrun, if applicable, of the activity, as well as the number of hours performed and/or their equivalence in ECTS credits.

The Secretariat will process the application and submit the resolution to the student.

The application may be submitted at any time in the course. Once the recognition is obtained, the credits must be registered. This registration will cost 20% of the credit cost for the current course and can only be completed during the tuition periods established by the Faculty.
