But up to the last third of the 19th century, there cannot be appreciated any decisive progresses in the commercial education. In Spain the career of trade was created in the middle of the 19th century with the Royal Decree of September 8th, 1850, Education being organized in the Institutes. Due to the practical utility of the profession, the Ministry of Promotion, by royal decree of August 11th, 1887, reorganizes the commercial educations, and creates the Schools of Trade. In the article 1 the above mentioned education is divided in elementary and high. Elementary Schools of Trade are established for teaching the degree of Mercantile Experts in Alicante, Bilbao, Corunna, Malaga, Seville, Valladolid and Saragossa; and High Schools of Trade for the same degree and that of Mercantile Teachers, in Barcelona and Madrid. The Royal Decree of August 31st, 1922 provoked a reorganization of the mercantile studies in the Schools of Trade. They were transformed in three degrees of educations: Elementary or Expert (with a preparatory period of two courses), Professional, and Top Technician. The highest degree included two specialties: Actuarial and Mercantile. The Schools, according to the degree of education that they were giving, were named Expert of Trade, Professional of Trade, and Higher Mercantile Studies. That of Seville was catalogued as Vocational school; the studies of Mercantile Expert and Mercantile Teacher were taught there. The career of trade has been improving in its content as the economic and administrative reality was demanding new knowledge, and in this evolution there appeared a series of study plans, which were adapted to the needs of the moment. In spite of the problems of all kinds that has had the career in its already more than centenary existence, it has triumphed in the area of the teaching, as well as in the administrative institutions, and in general, in all the manifestations of the wealth and national activities. Since the Vocational schools of Trade joined the Universities, with the denomination of University Schools of Business Studies, the business career takes a new direction. In the year 1953 the Law is promulgated on the Arrangement of the Economic and Commercial Studies, in which the legal requirements establish that the mercantile studies will comprise two periods: one of technical character and another university. The educations of the technical period would be offered in the Schools of Trade. The duration of the period was of six years distributed in three courses to obtain the Degree of Mercantile Expert, and other three, for the Degree of Mercantile Teacher. The studies of the university degree were taught in the Faculties of Political, Economic and Commercial Sciences (Economic and Commercial Department). The General Law of Education 14/1970, in its second transitory disposition, established that the Vocational schools of Trade would join the University as University Schools. UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF BUSINESS STUDIES Page 37 By Resolution of the Management Department of Universities and Investigation, of July 19th, 1975 (BOE of September 12th), the first study plan of the Diplomatura in Business Studies of the EUEE of the University of Seville was approved, modified as refers to the specialties by an order of July 4, 1982 (BOE of August 21st ). The need of adjustment to the new legislative, academic and labor environment has led to modifying the plans of study of this Diplomatura in two occasions more. So, the first reform took place after the Resolution of the University of Seville of January 14, 1997 (BOE of February 17th). Finally, in the year 2002 the Resolution of the University of Seville (June 17th) was published in BOE, for that the study plan that is used at present is adopted. After having been published the R.D. 604/1996 of April 15th (BOE of April 26th), in 1999 the official university degree of Diplomatura in Tourism is taught at the University School. It was a Resolution of September, 2nd (BOE of September 22nd), which ordered the publication of the study plan conducive to the obtaining of the degree. In the European Area of Higher Education, the English language is the common and basic instrument of communication, and in this frame the University School of Business Studies (EUEE) of the University of Seville decided to offer to its students the possibility of an academic career in English. Starting from the academic course 03/04, the EUEE has initiated the teaching of the Diplomatura in Business Sciences with a considerable part of the subjects in English. The offer of this program has given an added value to the qualification of the students and to the academic center. Six years later we face the challenge of it being transformed to fit the new Degree in Finance and Accounting that at present are taught at the School, starting from the course 09/10. Joining in the European Area of Higher Education, in 2009 the School began the introduction of the degrees of a Grade in Finance and Accounting and in Tourism for the students of the first course. The qualification of the degree authorizes to develop a professional career of a higher formative level of university type. At present the University School of Business Studies of the University of Seville is a Public Center dedicated to the Higher education in managerial and tourist themes. The formation of our students in these topics and the support to their professional integration once finished the studies, constitute the raison d'être of our organization. Simultaneously we work to obtain a more modern, just, free and developed society, in that the organizations are competitive inside a context of globalization and could give products and quality services to the citizens. Consequence of it, our pupils have been and are, certainly, qualified due to their good preparation and high technical quality.
