- Agreements

Cooperation Agreement between ASOCIACION DE EMPRESAS DE SERVICIOS MEDICOS DE CORDOBA (ASEMPUR), COMISIONES OBRERAS DE CORDOBA AND THE UNIVERSITY OF CORDOBA.

This agreement is aimed at establishing a supervised-internship programme intended to familiarise undergraduates at the Faculty of Medicine with private healthcare facilities, and introduce them to the basic principles of clinical practice, the diagnosis of pathologies and the management of a range of therapeutic alternatives.

- Criteria and specific procedure for the withdrawal of the Degree in Medicine

Criteria for the withdrawal of the Degree in Medicine offered by the University of Córdoba, in the event that this degree should be withdrawn, and procedures to be followed by those responsible, the Centre and the University in order to ensure that students are able to complete their course for a certain number of academic years after the decision to phase out the Degree. Two procedures are involved:

Criteria for the withdrawal of the University of Córdoba Degree in Medicine.

The University of Córdoba will specify fixed limits for each of the criteria shown below applicable to the temporary or permanent suspension of the Degree in Medicine. Specific criteria for the withdrawal of the Degree are as follows:

1. Failure of the Degree Course to meet the requirements for accreditation eight years after the date of registration of the course in the Register of Universities, Centres and Qualifications (RUCT).

2. Failure to comply with the provisions laid down in the Degree Course Verification Report.

3. Number of new students admitted below the minimum laid down by the Andalusian Council of Universities (CAU).

4. Insufficient teaching staff to ensure quality teaching.

5. Poor staff scores; poor teaching quality in terms of the results of the DOCENTIACORDOBA programme.

6. Lack of inadequacy of teaching materials, unsuitable facilities and infrastructure.

7. Failure to achieve the academic results stipulated in the Degree Course Verification Report (Section 8)

Procedure for protecting the rights of students.

The following will be displayed in detail on the Faculty of Medicine website (http://www.uco.es/organiza/centros/medicina/) and in any other media deemed appropriate:

1. A timetable for the scheduled withdrawal of the Degree, in the event of this being necessary.

2. Procedure by which students enrolled in the Degree course can adapt to the new Syllabus.

3. A mechanism enabling students to continue to receive tuition once the Degree course has been withdrawn, for a number of years post-withdrawal equivalent to the duration of the Degree plus one year.

4. Definition of the tuition to be withdrawn on the introduction of the proposed new Degree.

Informative Seminars will be held, entitled “New Degrees and Criteria for their Withdrawal”.

The Faculty of Medicine Registrar’s Office will keep an updated record: of the agreements adopted by the Senate of the University of Córdoba with regard to the criteria approved for the temporary or permanent withdrawal of tuition for the Degree in question; of the mechanisms provided for protecting the rights of the students and the commitment of the University to its students; and of viable alternatives for students enrolled in the courses concerned.

The Faculty of Medicine Registrar’s Office will establish the appropriate mechanisms to provide every student concerned with personalized information on the academic situation.
