Elective
2nd Cycle Studies - Mestrado
Recommended Prerequisites
The pre-requisites of this course are those corresponding to the application for the MSc course CMM.
Teaching Methods
The teaching methods of lectures aim at the global learning of the discipline.
The lectures are supported in the literature and presentations, with the support of media. There is an opportunity to discuss the concepts and more difficult issues. Occasionally students are invited to attend lectures by visiting specialists. Tutorial lessons (22.5 hours) will be to answer questions.
