One of the objectives of the School is to be in contact with the cultural
and economic environment, and this goal is met through a variety of
channels.
One of these is the execution of projects in collaboration with different
businesses and institutions. These projects are developed within the
ordinary academic activity, in training courses, or in final course
projects with work in which both students and teachers intervene. This
is a very important area of work for the School as it means putting
the students in contact with the reality of the professional world.
The participation of students in contests where they can present projects
they have developed in the classroom is also a frequent occurrence.
Another area of relationship of the School or Art and College of Design
with its cultural environment is the exhibitions that are prepared during
the final courses, where work developed within the centre itself is
exhibited, or significant proposals by professionals.
