Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
The teaching methodology will be tutorial based, with weekly sessions held in small groups. Each student has room to advance the development of their work, based on supervision, as well as to share their doubts, difficulties, and suggestions with the group. It is intended that students can elaborate reflective questions related to each project and increase their knowledge on crosscutting issues related to their scientific works. Whenever possible, active methods (eg, practical exercises in data analysis) will be used to acquire advanced research knowledge and skills, that besides of being applicable to their own research work, are crosscutting and transferable to other future research projects.
