Sustainable Development Goals

Learning Goals

- to enable, in a seminar context, a collective approach to individual research developed by each student in its
PhD dissertation;
- to monitor and inspire the research and writing of the individual PhD dissertation, creating moments of
reflection and discussion about the outcomes.

Contents

With an internal and disciplinary nature, this Seminar is organized in sessions where students present and
debate collectively their own individual PhD research, so that colleagues can enrich them with their
contributions.

Teaching Methods

The seminar has clearly a work in progress, informal and tutorial nature, so the primary focus of the teachinglearning
process is on students.
There is an intense exchange of ideas and perspectives, and the teacher assumes the role of debate facilitator
and guide (as a primus inter pares), giving its own substantive contribution once the tour de table between
students has been made.

Evaluation takes into account two criteria: the student attendance and the quality of its individual participation
in the seminar activities.
