Teaching method
The teaching methodology consists essentially of participating in seminar sessions presented by teachers and researchers and organized by the doctoral students themselves, covering the area of research that they develop. These seminars are not only expositive in nature, but seek to promote interaction and discussion of the topics addressed among the participants.
Evaluation method
The assessment of learning (continuous and exam) consists in a paper synthesizing each seminar content, enriched with the respective critical appraisal, as well as resulting from the public presentation evaluation, as well as the written document of the thesis progress report:
a) 1 summary report of the seminar sessions: 25%
b) 1 Thesis progress report: 50%
c) Oral presentation of the work: 25%
