Other comments

It would be very convenient to bring previous training or knowledge about graphic modeling tools and thermal installations in buildings.

In line with the Green Campus objectives, the delivery of the documentary work carried out in this matter will be carried out through Moodle, in digital format without the need to print them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The full integration of students who, for physical, sensory, mental or sociocultural reasons, experience difficulties in adequate, equal and beneficial access to university life will be facilitated.
