Planned learning activities and teaching methods

We use a variety of teaching methods to meet different learning styles and needs of the course. This means that the student can expect a set of lectures, seminars, case studies and learning based on group discussions and problems (problem solving, student oriented). The result is a rich learning experience where students can benefit from courses which are relevant, practical and current.
Graduate students are required to participate during their studies in scientific activities (conferences, workshops) objects associated with the Program enriching their knowledge with additional knowledge to the theoretical and practical training in relation to their practical training and preparation of their thesis work.
Courses other than teaching or instructional books proposed by each teacher to study their contents usually offer several other forms of additional teaching materials such as notes, educational CD / DVD, Internet courses, or hung on the website of the Department or the educational platform (e-class) of the graduate program                                                        .
It is possible, at the discretion of the teacher, lessons supplemented by classroom exercises and assignments, individual or group, to better their strengthening. In any case, at the discretion of the teacher to determine the specific requirements of the exercise (or exercises) in each course, or other work, which should prepare the student for the course.
