Learning activities and methodology
Due to the uncertainty about the teaching format to which the health circumstances will take us during the next academic year, it is expected to start in the blended modality, and may lead to 100% face-to-face or 100% on-line training as the spread or the control over the pandemic and the hygiene-sanitary norms that the Authorities of the sector dictate.
