Learning activities and methodology
In each week one lecture session (master class) and one practical session (in reduced groups) will be taught. The first is geared to the acquisition of theoretical knowledge, and the second to the acquisition of practical skills related to theoretical concepts. In addition to this sessions four laboratory practical sessions in reduced groups (maximum 20 students) will be impart. Students will have the possibility of individual tutorials.
