Description |
Introductory activities |
An overview on the methodologies to be used in the course, the contents, the learning objectives, the grading methods and the reference bibliography will be given. |
Lecture |
The theoretical contents of the course as well as representative examples will be explained. |
Presentations / expositions |
The students will have to make a presentation individually and in front of their classmates of a research work on an advanced subject related to the course.
|
Laboratory practicals |
The students will have to accomplish four practical laboratory experiments related with the concepts introduced in the theoretical lectures.
|
Personal tuition |
Students will have the opportunity to solve any doubts they may have individually at the corresponding teacher’s office.
|
Description |
Students will have the opportunity to solve any doubts they may have, both in the course of the theoretical lectures and in the practical laboratory experiments, by having personal individual appointments with the professors at their office.
