Estudios duales en MAPAL

¿Te gustaría estudiar después de tu título de educación media (técnica)? ¿Pero te parece que la universidad y la escuela técnica superior están muy alejados de la práctica? Entonces un estudio dual es la opción para ti.

En colaboración con la universidad de formación dual de Baden-Wurtemberg, MAPAL ofrece la posibilidad de un estudio dual en el que se combinan estudios superiores teóricos con trabajo práctico en la empresa. En seis semestres de estudio no solo obtendrás un título de licenciatura, sino que también adquirirás una experiencia importante a través de un trabajo conjunto activo en las distintas áreas de la empresa. Te beneficiarás de un salario mensual, una laptop corporativa, así como también tendrás facilidades para comer en nuestras cantinas y cafeterías.

¿De qué se trata el estudio dual?

Durante tu estudio irás cambiando entre fases teóricas y prácticas, las cuales durarán tres meses cada una. Las unidades teóricas se llevarán a cabo en las instalaciones de la universidad de formación dual de Baden-Wurtemberg. Por supuesto, estos títulos son de grado y, por lo tanto, son comparables con las certificaciones de las universidades y las escuelas técnicas superiores. Una gran ventaja es la interacción personal, ya que trabajarás junto con tus compañeros en grupos pequeños. Así aprenderás bajo condiciones óptimas y podrás construir una red de contactos duradera con otros estudiantes y profesores.

En las fases de práctica estarás con nosotros en la empresa y conocerás las distintas áreas de MAPAL. Trabajarás de forma directa en el día a día, se te confiarán proyectos, harás contactos e incluso podrás tener la oportunidad de realizar una fase práctica en una de nuestras sucursales en el extranjero.

Con un buen título tendrás todas las puertas abiertas. En efecto, está dentro de nuestros intereses ofrecerles a nuestros estudiantes duales un trabajo con visión de futuro en MAPAL luego de graduarse.
