Objectives and Competencies

Objectives

 

In establishing the objectives for this master, the results frames for Higher Education of other similar degrees offered in Spain and in other European Union countries have been taken into account. This enables comparison and transparency within the EHEA, as well as the exchange of students. We have also taken into account, as mentioned above, the objectives proposed by the “Marie Curie Initial Training Networks (ITN) in Regenerative medicine”, of which we are members.

The main objectives of the Master are:

General Objective:

  • The final goal of this Master in Regenerative Biomedicine is to offer students advanced training, of specialized and multidisciplinary nature, oriented to develop abilities and skills in regenerative medicine and in technologies related to this field which are useful for their professional development.

Specific objectives:

  • To improve specialized knowledge of the Master-level students.

To allow students to familiarize with a wide range of basic and clinical research techniques related to their final research objectives. To provide students with the necessary scientific tools for them to acquire the capacity of undertaking high quality research autonomously. To offer the practical knowledge which will train them for their professional development in the field of cellular therapy and regenerative medicine.

 

Competencies

Competencies are the identifiable and evaluable set of knowledge, attitudes, values, abilities and skills, related to each other, which will allow the student to exercise the professional activity according to the requirements and standards used in the corresponding occupational area.

All the master’s at the University of Almeria explicitly include two types of competencies:

  • The generic competencies included in Royal Decree 1393/2007, of 29 October, which establishes the organization of official higher education.
  • The specific degree competencies. These competencies are detailed in the degree’s report and are related to its particular subjects. Some of these competencies may have been agreed at the Andalusian regional level, or for certain degrees, they may be regulated at the state level.

Competences are the set of interrelated knowledge, attitudes, values, abilities and skills, which can be identified and evaluated, and which enable the student to undertake the professional activity according to requirements and standards used in the appropriate occupational area.

All masters of the University of Almeria explicitly cover two types of competences:

  • Generic Competences included in Royal Decree 1393/2007 of 29 October, establishing regulations for Official University Studies.
  • Specific Competences of the degree. These competences are specified in the degree report, and are related to its own disciplines. Part of these competences may have been agreed at the regional level of Andalusia, or, in some degrees, they may have been decided nationally.

 

Basic, General and Cross-Curricular Competencies

The basic competencies for all master’s degrees were defined in R.D. 1393/2007 of 29 October. They will be progressively adapted and as established by the current R.D. 822/2021 of 28 September, which establishes the organization of university education and the quality assurance procedure.

General competencies for all master's degrees
CB6-To possess and understand knowledge That students have demonstrated they possess and understand knowledge that expands and improves on that associated with the first cycle, providing them a basis or opportunity for originality in developing and/or applying ideas, often in a research context.
CB7-Application of knowledge That students know how to apply the knowledge gained and are capable of problem-solving in new or unexplored settings within broader (or multi-disciplinary) contexts relating to their field of study.
CB8-Ability to make judgements That students can integrate knowledge and face the complexity of making judgements based on incomplete information which, being incomplete or limited, includes reflections on the social and ethical responsibilities linked to applying their knowledge and judgements.
CB9-Communication capacity and social aptitude That students know how to communicate their conclusions –and the ultimate knowledge and reasons that support them– to both specialized and non-specialized audiences in a clear and unambiguous manner.
CB10-Learning skills That students possess the learning skills that will enable them to continue studying in a way that will be largely self-directed or autonomous.
