FABA-PEREZ, Cristina  and  PATINO-AGUDO, Rocío. The Training of Professionals In the Information Sciences from A New Perspective: Seniors. Investig. bibl [online]. 2017, vol.31, n.71, pp.17-51. ISSN 2448-8321.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iibi.0187358xp.2017.71.57808.

The medical advances have increased life expectancy in most countries. Seniors are the group that has greatly noticed this progress. The university cannot ignore this profound social change. New degrees of Spanish universities should include content related to this group to open new professional opportunities for graduates, mainly degrees directly related to the information society and information technologies and communication such as the degree of information sciences. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to adapt the current degree of Information Sciences from the University of Extremadura to new professional opportunities. To this end, specialized contents in seniors are designed for a total of 40 subjects. These contents do not replace the existing, but added to them, being extrapolated to other university studies in information and documentation beyond our geographical boundaries.

Keywords : Degree of Information Sciences; Seniors; Content Design; Professional Opportunities; University of Extremadura.
