Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
In the first part of the teaching-learning activities, students attend lectures on the scientific methodology in research. The second part of the activities takes place in a tutorial environment in which the student develops his project with the accompaniment of a tutor, which allows systematic communication from knowledge to the final writing of the research proposal to be carried out. Tutors also guide students' work in the organizational aspect and in motivating students to participate in seminars that take place at the Health Sciences Research Center at UBI.
