On January 14, 2025, BSU – International Relations Office interns from the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT) and Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management (BSHM) participated in a session with Ms. Erika Martinez Gonzalez from the University of Huelva, Spain. The session focused on the university’s digital systems that simplify academic and administrative processes.

Ms. Gonzalez introduced tools for student engagement, including virtual classrooms, administrative platforms, and a digital certificate system with secure login features. These systems allow students to manage schedules, access grades, submit requests, and upload documents online. A virtual assistant addresses common inquiries, further streamlining processes.
She also highlighted the University of Huelva library’s digital and physical resources, which are accessible remotely via VPNs. These include digitized books, journals, and research databases, ensuring students can use academic materials off-campus.
The discussion included internship opportunities, job postings in IT and engineering, and flexible master’s programs that align with students’ career goals. Participants compared grading systems and academic practices between the Philippines and Spain and shared experiences with tools like Google Classroom and Microsoft 365.
The session concluded with an overview of the university’s centralized digital platform, its efforts to improve online systems for both students and staff, and emphasized the importance of digital tools in enhancing student engagement and overall academic experience.
