Evaluation method
It is compulsory the attendance of the practical lessons. The students produce reports which are discussed and marked. For the final mark, the mark obtained in each module has a weighting correlated to the time that was used for its lectures. Lectures on general theoretical aspects, as well as tutorials. Labs on selected topics on remediation techniques and problem-solving. Computer and library resources available to enforce homework reading and discussion assigments of state-of-the-art literature and case studies. Group interactions and communication skills are incentivated. Evaluation designed as an individual and group project, respectively, through presentation and discussion of Seminars (S) and Final Report (FR)
