Complex Trajectories
The Complex Trajectories project, funded under the Erasmus+ programme, aims to understand the increasingly diverse and complex trajectories of students at university, and to support those who follow them. Not only is it necessary to ensure inclusive access to university programmes, it is also necessary to ensure success in completing studies regardless of students' socio-economic background.
In order to do this, the project will define a system for monitoring students' trajectories that will allow the development of both institutional and university support policies. In this respect, it is proposed that analysis of trajectories be based, not the programme (graduation rates, etc.), but on the student. Thus, a trajectory will be considered successful regardless of whether there have been changes of course or type of study.
The agents required to be able to implement the results of this programme range from the units responsible for providing data, to the agents responsible for policy making, and the people who provide support for students.
The project partners are: Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Universitat de València, Université de Bourgogne, The Open University, Universidade Aberta, Universidade Porto and the Government of Catalonia's Secretariat for Universities and Research. AQU Catalunya is an associate partner.
