This article presents some of the results of a study focused on the analysis of the influence of ServiceLearning (SL) projects on the development of university student competencies. The axis of the study was inquiry into an SL project implemented by university students in a high school residence in the framework of one of their Social Education degree courses. University students and professors, high school students and two of the high school’s social teachers participated in the project. The research methodology was the case study, with document analysis, participant observation, semi-structured group interviews and an ad hoc questionnaire designed by the university professor as information collecting strategies.
