• MetodologiaMethodology

  This phase of the master's research has a weekly follow-up of two hours by the supervisor to ensure that the student has an intellectual follow-up both in writing and in the production of the work. This monitoring ensures that the dissertation document has the quality required to be defended and is written according to the required standards. It also ensures that the student develops a body of work consistent with their theoretical-conceptual research. The assessment of theoretical-practical research work (or theoretical, if this is the student's choice) is made through public tests and with a jury of three or more elements whose training is strictly linked to the main scientific area of the study cycle or relevant to the matters investigated.
