Zusammenfassung:The  Universities  are  agents  of  social transformation through their performances in a context of institutional autonomy and academic freedom, must be focused in interdisciplinary aspects and to promote the critical thought, contributing like this UNESCO to the sustainable development and  to  the  welfare  in  general  (2009). The problem which we intend to tackle with our research is that the University encourages an education to satisfy the needs for the society. First, through the search  of  solutions  to  the  world  and local  problems.  And  second  that  such an  education  guarantees  an  adequate formation  in  competences  through  an integral formation of the student body.The goal is to analyze the implementation of  the  University  Social  Responsibility (USR) through the extension activities in the formation of the master futures. For that  we  have  carried  out  a  qualitative research orientated, in a first moment, to the understanding with the revision of official documents of the framework of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and the Horizon 2020 (H2020). And in a second  moment,  a  qualitative  research orientated to the transformation of the context.  The  relationship  of  the  social participation with the curriculum has meant implementing a didactics of the innovative curriculum formation with the students of the Degree of Education. The study concludes, breaking up of the triangulation of the contributions of the ones had an interview  (students,  teaching  staff  and entities) that highlight the high educational impact of the social participation, thanks to the extension activities, since it means forming global citizens.
