Sustainable Development Goals

Learning Goals

To give students theorical knowledge and technical abilities to better conceptualize industrial products. Experiment with the materials through practical exercise is an important step in the educational process of each student, allowing them to get in direct contact with the material and verifying the acquired theorical knowledge.
Skills
Students are able to recognize and apply to their projects production technologies of each taught material. Recognizing types of materials with which are produced the products.
Define materials and finishes for their projects and learn to discuss production processes with industry or their representatives and clients including the terms and processes.
By technological limitations be able to idealize a product with productive and economic viability.
