Resum
The incorporation of the Spanish university system into the European Higher Education Area
has brought about a series of adaptations. Among the recommendations is the inclusion of
an external training period in a company, which has resulted in significant changes in the
degree syllabus in order to balance the theoretical and practical education required by the
students. This new framework has been legally confirmed by the Spanish Government and, in
the case of the University of Barcelona, by the publication of internal guidelines. Taking
advantage of this new opportunity to adapt the Pharmacy degree to real-world problems in
industry, the Dean’s team of the Faculty of Pharmacy, with the support of the Faculty
administrative staff and the Students Advisory Service, have assumed the challenge of
including a new subject in the syllabus entitled Training in Companies.
In parallel, a new activity has been set up to ensure that the students choose the most
suitable company department/job for them and to help them pass the company interview.
Under the name of Passport to a Profession, a series of ten explanatory talks has been
scheduled every academic year. These talks deal with a broad range of topics aimed at
providing the students with the basic tools they will need to make the most of a company
training period and to make headway in the professional world when they finish their
degree. In addition, three Faculty of Pharmacy-Pharmaceutical company workshops and two
round-table conferences have been held in the last two years in order to bring the university
and industry together. Notably, the project to provide students with company training is
expanding on an international level, with two to three undergraduate students contracted
every year by a United Kingdom-based multinational pharmaceutical company.
The statistical data of the whole process has been analysed for a more in-depth
understanding of the activity and to improve the programme.
