  • MetodologiaMethodology
    The teaching-learning process adopts a theoretical-practical approach. Practical examples and real case studies are used to illustrate and contextualize theoretical concepts, thereby facilitating their understanding and application. Direct engagement with current technologies is a key element, providing students with the necessary practical exposure to develop technical skills that are later applicable in a professional context. Work and research methodologies are taught and progressively implemented throughout the semester. Techniques such as brainstorming, bibliographic research, and critical analysis are incorporated to stimulate independent thinking and problem-solving. Critical analysis plays a pivotal role, being integrated into classroom discussions; it fosters a constructive feedback environment, allowing for ongoing reflection and adjustments in the learning process.
