Description |
| Problem solving |
Collections of exercises proposed for each issue will be resolved, allowing the application of the most appropriate mathematical models to each case, including management software, application of the most appropriate assumptions, regarding the theoretical contents developed in lectures and relationship with the professional exercise. |
| Supervised projects |
Troubleshooting greater demands that the exercises solved in class or issues of particular relevance. |
| Objective test |
The degree of acquired knowledge on the subject in question is valued, taking into account both the theoretical part as problems. |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech |
The detailed explanation of the contents of the subject will be made. The student will have a copy of the topic in each session master. Class participation is encouraged through comments linking the theoretical content with real-life experiences. |

Assessment comments |
A final exam for those students who do not participate in the continuous assessment of the subject throughout the course will be proposed. It allows to evaluate and verify the expected results in terms of global content of matter and verify the degree of achievement of the objectives. The overall final exam will consist of a test composed of 2 parts: a) theoretical (50%); b) practice (50%); with independent valuation, which is necessary to obtain a minimum of 3 points in each part purposed. |
