Educational model

Recognizing that each student lives, works and learns differently, the UOC offers an active, hands-on learning experience through personalized study pathways that fit the needs and circumstances of our diverse student community.

All of this is delivered with the academic rigour and high standards that define us.

A people-centred methodology

At the UOC, we support people throughout their lives. This support acts as the guiding compass for everything we do: how we design learning processes, how we assess, the types of academic feedback we provide, the roles of teaching staff, the range of learning resources available and the active listening we engage in with our stakeholders.

Our model encourages students to reflect on what they have learned, apply it to real-world situations and establish connections with their professional environment. Through this approach, students develop autonomy and critical thinking, enhance their creativity and gain tools for effective teamwork.
