This article investigates a case study regarding students, former students, and internal and external supervisors of the Degree in Audiovisual and Multimedia at the Polytechnic Institute of Beja (IPBeja). As a methodology, we opted for an exploratory investigation, adopting a case study as the method and a questionnaire survey as the data collection technique, using a quantitative approach to the research. This data will enable us to list a set of conclusions that will contribute to optimising the degree’s academic curriculum regarding the theoretical-practical and practical-labour functioning of the curricular units. This optimisation also allows for narrowing the gap between academic and professional reality and may serve as a reference for other degrees in audiovisual and media production. In this way, the article carries out a small State of Art, contextualises the study cycle of the case study, raises the investigative question and the objectives, and addresses related terminological definitions, methods, results, and conclusions.
