All the infrastructures and equipment in the centre, indispensable and adequate for the development of the teaching in the faculty are included as material resources and services.
To this effect, the mechanisms developed to completely eliminate the architectural barriers in the Faculty have been prioritised. In this sense, the Faculty counts on facilities which completely meet the accessibility requirements established in the applicable regulation. In particular, there are parking spaces for disabled people, ramps to ease the access to the building from outside and interior ramps which ease the mobility among the different centre premises. The different floors in the building also count on the necessary elevators. To end up, there are conveniently prepared services to be used by disabled people.
The Dean Office is the responsible body for the regular review of the infrastructures and services associated to the centre, making sure that, as long as the budget enables to do, they are adequate for the teaching activities of the degrees.
The detection of material needs of the teaching and administration and service staff and students is carried out by focusing on the demands communicated either directly to the Dean team, to the mentors of the Mentoring Action Programme (MAP), or through the corresponding complaints and suggestions mailboxes.
The complementary services, like the photocopy, cafeteria and canteen services, are provided by private companies hired following the public sector regulation.
