| Methodologies | Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech | In-person master classes lasting 50 minutes aimed at teaching the theoretical contents of the subject with the help of audiovisual material and online resources. |
| Laboratory practice | Practical classes in which the 230 spatial symmetry groups will be identified with specific software, the relationship between symmetry and magnetic, dielectric and optical activity properties will be observed with practical cases; crystallization techniques will be used to crystallize a biological macromolecule and a simulation will be carried out to determine the structure of a protein by means of X-ray crystallography. Organic and inorganic compounds will also be crystallized and their structure will be determined. |
| Workshop | These sessions will be dedicated to the resolution of problems and questions by the students, with the guidance of the teaching staff. These problems will be provided in a sequence in time according to the contents covered in the master sessions. The work will be carried out individually or in groups under the direction of the teaching staff. |
| Mixed objective/subjective test | This activity will aim to assess the knowledge acquired by the student through a writing test. |
| Introductory activities | Introductory session to develop on the first day of class, in which the program of the subject, the methodology, the evaluation criteria, as well as a calendar of each of the planned activities will be explained. |
