It is understood that it is essential that students have access to various ways of processing the information made available by the Curricular Unit Syllabus with great emphasis on the possibility of experimentation and development of autonomy. The encouragement to promote activities outside the classroom stands out, with thematic trips, study visits within the scope of the program's subjects, as well as the search for complementary activities related to the issues in focus in the contemporary world and the way in which architecture impacts or is impacted by it.
