Results of innovation groups

Promoting the activities of the Teaching Innovation Groups (GID) of the University of Murcia is a priority of the management team of the University of Murcia, in general, and of the Vice-rectorate of Studies, in particular. Until 2021, the University of Murcia has launched three calls for aid to the GID. Since 2018, the Innovation Unit has made a very important commitment to actively collaborate in the organization of training seminars for the GID with the Centre for Training and Professional Development (CFDP) and innovation conferences in collaboration with Estudios Propios. These activities have allowed the visibility of these GIDs to be increased and have boosted the teaching innovation of the University of Murcia.

The budget allocated by the University of Murcia to finance the GID has enabled a wide range of teaching innovation activities to be set up. The following table describes the main milestones reached by these groups.
