The teaching methodologies of this course unit will be based on theoretical classes (1h), seminars (1,5h), theoretical-practical classes (26h), practical classes (51h) and tutorials (2,5h). There will be a total amount of 85 contact hours, including evaluation (3h).
The final grade will be based on a practical component, which is worth 30% of the final grade, and a theoretical component, which is worth 70% of the final grade.
The assessment will enhance the acquisition of knowledge and decision-making skills.
