Presentations / expositions |
Oral presentation by students of the results of the practices. |
Personal tuition |
Meet students individually or in small groups to to solve doubts/questions. |
Description |
Personalized attention will be in the office number 303 of the Department of Chemical Engineering via previous appointment by email (sandra.contreras@urv.cat) or during office hours. |
