Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
To study a subject in the area of Industrial Engineering and Management and to dominate their skills of communication.
Develop critical skills, analytical, deductive and formalization applied to a specific theme.
Working individually, in accordance with the standard formal and institutional international requirements.
Develop pre-scientific writing skills, covering all stages of the scientific method: observation, data collection, hypothesis, model building, validation or inference conclusions.
To be able to discuss the working topic in the context of oral presentation and seminarial discussion.
To develop interest on applied research, seeking to develop applications in real and fundamental contexts by solving a specific problem.
It is also intended that the student at this stage already has the use of English as the working language. The essay may eventually be written in English.

Contents
The work plan that each student will have to develop will be defined by the teacher who supervises the student in coordination with the head of the course, respecting and fulfilling the general objectives and skills to develop in the course. The activities to be developed can be broadly divided into the following topics:
1. participation in research activities or in a business environment;
2. attendance at seminars, workshops or courses;
3. undertaking of a study or project;
4. writing of a monograph, following the standards and practices of academic writing.
The development of the essay will be done at two levels; at the conceptual and theoretical level, with the appropriate analytical critical framework, and at the applied level through the use of tools of industrial engineering management.

Teaching Methods
Evaluation of a written report and a public presentation.
The grading is a weighted average of the final oral presentation (30%) and the essay writing with weight decreasing according to the following criteria: rigor (25%), originality (20%), synthesis (15%) and form (10%).
It is predict up to two periods of intermediate presentation of progress reports (at least two over six months), signaling the final evaluation.
