    Deusto learning model (MAUD)

    01

    Experiential context

    We know that we learn from experience. Therefore, at Deusto, our starting point is students’ previous knowledge.

    02

    Reflective observation

    Once these preliminary outlines have been established, it is essential to observe them and also to question them.

    03

    Conceptualisation

    We compare our previous knowledge with written theory on the subject.

    04

    Active learning

    Learning needs not only to understand that theory but to put it into practice. To this end, activities, exercises, practices, projects and/or research work are carried out, where each student applies different skills.

    05

    Assessment

    Finally, the assessment process involves reflection on what the student has learned and evaluation of the work completed.

    LIVING AND STUDYING ABROAD

    INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE

    Inyour third year, if you meet the academic and language requirements, you will be able to access an international mobility experience for a full academic year. Mobility will be for one semester according to the agreements signed with each institution. Thus, in addition to gaining knowledge of another culture, you will learn to adapt to new situations and develop your language skills.

    Within the mobility programmes we can highlight the ERASMUS + (international mobility) and SICUE (national mobility) programmes.
