University – Business / Classrooms – Professional environments/ Round trip chained actions

Abstract

University-business cooperation implies–for educational centers–a way of real contact with the economic, social and cultural systems in which both sectors coexist. It implies an approach to productive environments that enables students to have a clearer vision of the areas in which they will develop their professional careers. It is especially in university higher education where the limits between the educational and academic activities and those extracurricular are increasingly diffuse and unstable. The proposal presented in this article is a reflection about the relationship between academic and professional, rehearsed through experiences in several years of teaching and research with its latest applications developed in subjects taught in ESNE recently. But this text also aims to be a necessary stop in order to assess the results obtained for the setting of new objectives, as well as for the opening of new proposals that could be extended to general actions of the center or to a greater range of subjects, of any of the degrees or master that are taught. It is an experience that indirectly questions the structure of teaching plans and the general strategies of higher education centers and all the allies with whom they establish cooperative relations.
