Identify information needs and develop effective strategies to locate the appropriate sources. 4. Determine the reliability and quality of information and sources. 5. Retrieve information using accurate and effective searches. 6. Take into consideration the ethical use of information and avoid plagiarism applying academic and deontological regulations and conventions.

CB1. Students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education, and is usually at a level that, while relying on advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study. CB2. Students are able to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess the competences usually demonstrated through the development and defence of arguments and problem solving within their field of study. CB3. Students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their field of study) in order to make judgements which include reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues. CB4. Students should be able to communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. CB5. Students will have developed the learning skills necessary to undertake further study with a high degree of autonomy. CG1. Analyze, formulate and solve problems with initiative, decision-making, creativity,critical reasoning skills and ability to efficiently communicate and transmit knowledge, skills and abilities in the Energy Engineering field CG3. Acquire the abilities to draft, sign and develop projects in the area of energy engineering for construction, renovation, repair, preservation, demolition, manufacture, installation, assembly or utilization of: structures, mechanical equipment and energetic facilities and to represent and understand technical documentation. CG8. Know and deal with current legislation in addition to mandatory specifications, regulations and norms within the energy engineering field. CG10.

Teaching is online (synchronous). THE LAST THREE CLASSES ARE FACE-TO-FACE in Leganés Acquisition of knowledge through theoretical classes with teaching materials prepared by the teacher, online tutorials and readings. Related to theoretical competences. Acquisition of skills and abilities through practical cases of information search, analysis and evaluation of sources, and presentation and citation of results. Related to practical competences. Days and times of tutorials will be available in Aula Global.
