Description
Being a small group of students, it is possible to resolve doubts and individualized monitoring during the learning process itself.
In particular, the master class is participatory, encouraging the exchange of opinions, debate and answer questions.
The students in labs are supervised at all times by teachers and, if necessary, by the research group in which the student integrates (since starting the course, each student joins a research group which will develop their Master's Thesis).
