3. Control and automation. - Application to control an d automation processes of production processes.

Teaching Methods

Includes:
- Mix lectures with practical Laboratory classes
The teaching method is based on Mix lectures with practical Laboratory classes. An active learning is pursued to stimulate the student to apply the acquired knowledg.
Classes are used for practical applications of the exposed concepts and tools. Usually using problem solving approach. Some of these classes are reserved to the supervised development of a project.

The assessment method is based on a single project developed during the semester. The final grade is the same as the project grade. Students are approved when the grade is>=10.
