Abstract

Previous studies indicated that the main problems regarding the final work of the Bachelor in Food Science and Technology were the limited spaces where critical thinking is promoted and exercised, the little time that is given in the courses for academic literacy and the lack of practices in which scientific work is exercised as a social activity.

Considering this, this paper proposes an innovation that incorporates the final work as a constitutive part of the career and suggests the development of a final work workshop that accompanies the students during the last years of their academic life. In this workshop, students will define the central theme of their final degree work and learn the discursive conventions that contribute to their academic literacy. The mechanisms for a coordinated work between the workshop and curricular subjects will also be considered.

In this way, it is sought to guarantee democratic access to knowledge from the beginning to the end of academic life and the successful incorporation of the recent professional into working world.
