El Título de Grado en Historia del Arte  por la Universidad de La Laguna se ha elaborado según la normativa vigente, y más concretamente teniendo como base lo regulado en el Real Decreto 1393/2007, de 29 de octubre, por el que se establece la ordenación de las enseñanzas universitarias oficiales, y por las distintas normativas dictadas por la Universidad de La Laguna: el Reglamento de la Comisión de Estudios de Grado de la Universidad de La Laguna (aprobado en Consejo de Gobierno de 22 de octubre de 2007) y las Directrices Generales para el Diseño de Títulos de Grado de la Universidad de La Laguna (Consejo de Gobierno de 30 de enero de 2008). Entre otras directrices, además de las que se recogen en la norma general del Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia, cabe señalar las relativas a los siguientes aspectos:

• An elective of between a 5% and a 10%, with an offer of two elective credits for each elective credit that the student must pass.
• Include subjects or activities in which the content is taught in another European Union language, preferably English.
• The recommendation is that the 60 credits for core subjects be shared across the different degrees in the same branch, although if only 36 are scheduled, they must necessarily be shared.
• The obligation to include a minimum of 12 credits of external internships.

In accordance with ministerial guidelines and those of our own University, we decided to include optional subjects in 10%, an external internship of 18 compulsory credits, and a 6-credit assessment of the final degree project. These criteria give our draft curriculum the following structure:

Optional (credits offered)	24

TOTAL	240

1. Modules and subjects included in the study plan

The general objectives, knowledge, and competencies of the degree, outlined in Chapter 4, have been structured around four modules containing the knowledge and competencies indicated therein. As will be seen, we have opted to conceive of a module as a grouping of related subjects and courses from a disciplinary perspective. The four modules around which the subjects and courses are structured are as follows:

1. Knowledge of the General History of Universal Art as a complex, open, and discontinuous process based on the compartmentalization of historical time into units made up of periods of different duration.
2. Knowledge of the history, methods, and current issues of conservation, restoration criteria, management, protection, and dissemination of historical and artistic heritage.
3. Systematic and integrated knowledge of artistic fact.
4. Interdisciplinary and instrumental knowledge.

The organization of these modules into subjects and courses will allow us to organize and schedule all the content and competencies over the four academic years. The distribution of the modules, subjects, and courses in the degree will be as follows:

Para estructurar el Plan de estudios se ha recurrido al uso de dos niveles de agrupación: materias y módulos. Las asignaturas que pueden concebirse de manera integrada se han agrupado como materias; por otro lado, se han agrupado en módulos una o varias materias que constituyen una unidad organizativa dentro del Plan de estudios.
