Teaching Methods

Teaching theory and practice, with 10 sessions corresponding to 35 hours of contact (10 sessions of 3,5 hours). The total work time of the student is 52 hours. Theoretical classes are designed to expose and discuss the main programmatic contents, encouraging interactivity and questioning.
The topics are further explored through the realization of practical exercises for each of the different topics supported by scripts provided by the teacher and carried out in a group. The exercises are made using simulations.

Assessment

The exercises correspond to 50% of the final grade. The learning outcomes are assessed individually through 1 written exam (50% of the grade). Thus, the final grade will be 50% theoretical + 50% practical (NF=0.5*T+0.5*P).
