Nearly 14,000 UCAM face-to-face students have received their online classes today (17/03/2020)

UCAM has been working for several years on a process of digital transformation that has enabled all teachers, students and administration and service personnel to carry out their teaching and professional activity online.

Given the current situation caused by the COVID19 Coronavirus pandemic, classes have been taught online to all students since yesterday, Monday, with complete normality.

The Vice-Rector's Office for Virtual Education carries out permanent monitoring, monitoring the sessions, which today were 450. These classes last for several hours and have had an average of 29 students for each of them, with 140 being the highest number of connected users in the same class.

In order to carry out this virtual training, the Catholic University had carried out in recent years the migration of all local computer desktops to the cloud.

Likewise, the number of servers that support virtual teaching had doubled.

All this computer engineering work has also allowed, in addition to teachers and students, all administration and service personnel to access their desk from their home, just as if they were in person on their University computer.

This excellent result achieved with such immediacy would not have been possible, however, without the human factor.

The involvement of the teaching staff has been excellent, as has that of all the University services.

While the students are responding with great commitment.

Access to digital books

UCAM also makes its digital library available to the university community, which contains more than half a million electronic books, some 60,000 magazines and 220 databases.

Likewise, you can also access BUSCAM, a portal that incorporates 2 million publications every month.

Added to all this, through Ingebook you can access your entire catalog of specialized digital publications in the field of engineering, for a month.

These initiatives are in line with others being carried out by international organizations such as UNESCO, which has given access to its world digital library.
