  • MetodologiaMethodology
    Teaching methodologies are based on active methodologies, in particular (1) case study and (2) problem-based and project-based learning. These methodologies generate discussion and imply the resolution of theoretical and practical exercises. We seek to stimulate practical skills in research, analysis and development of work, following the rules of scientific work. In terms of pedagogical resources, the teacher provides case studies and exercises for the practical application of the knowledge acquired, as well as other materials through the content management platform (Moodle).
