Law + Exclusive Degree in Digital Law and Technological Innovation

In order to define the ideal profile of the new students who wish to access this degree, we take into account the final educational objectives that we intend to achieve, in three aspects: 

• Students. Students with intellectual concerns and willing to work, both personally and as part of a team. In this regard, in the selection process, special attention is paid to the candidates' interaction and dialogue skills. It is also important that the student is able to understand that the subjects are not watertight compartments but are part of an overall plan or system of knowledge. Consequently, from the outset, we ask our students - especially at the interview and, after admission, during the two-week zero-preparatory Academic year given to them - to renounce a purely rote and "legalistic" concept of law. In this sense, a series of basic skills or abilities are valued, among which the following stand out: comprehensive reading and the ability to interpret texts; writing or editing; and public speaking. Likewise, emphasis is placed on the vocation of service and the idea of justice as a reference value of law, both in its theoretical and practical aspects.
• Future professionals. Candidates must have a solid scientific background. It is intended that, at the end of their training, the professional will master the legal language and have a good understanding of a basic map of concepts (which will allow them to interpret the legal system and solve the practical problems that arise). In this way, he/she will be able to efficiently face and solve the challenges he/she faces.
• Training. This will be of an integral nature, which means that it must be dogmatic -theoretical and systematic-, but also practical and committed. In this context, dialogue, as a learning tool, and the technique of debates are promoted. This training must be, and is, essential and systematic, so that the fundamental concepts can be clearly understood. 

Specifically, this degree is aimed at students with a transformative and international vocation, who are aware of the changing environment in which we find ourselves and who seek to adapt and obtain the best opportunities in a future working world.
