The guidelines issued by the Ministry of Education and Science are incorporated into the general regulations of the ULL, among which the following stand out due to their direct impact on the structure of the curriculum:

• Elective credits represent between 5 and 10% of the total credits that the student must take. An offer of two optional credits is contemplated for each optional credit that the student must pass.
• It is recommended that the 60 credits for core subjects be shared across the different degrees in the same branch, preferably distributed over the first two years. If only 36 credits are scheduled, these must be shared across all degrees and must be taught during the first year.
• The program will include subjects taught in another European Union language, preferably English. In the Philosophy degree, the 12 required credits are incorporated into practical activities in various subjects.
• 12 credits of external internships are included, as well as another 12 credits corresponding to the final degree project.

In accordance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Education and Science and those of the ULL, the plan includes an optional 10% course, a 12-credit external internship, and 12 credits for the final degree project. As a result, the plan is distributed as follows:
