CB7 - That students know how to apply the knowledge acquired and their ability to solve problems in environments
new or little known within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their area of study
CB8 - That students are able to integrate knowledge and face the complexity of formulating judgments based on
information that, being incomplete or limited, includes reflections on the social and ethical responsibilities linked to the
application of your knowledge and judgment
CB9 - That students know how to communicate their conclusions and the knowledge and ultimate reasons that support them to audiences
specialized and non-specialized in a clear and unambiguous way
CB10 - That students possess the learning skills that allow them to continue studying in a way that will
be largely self-directed or autonomous.
TRANSVERSAL
CT01 -Ability to take actions with team spirit
CT02 - Ethical and intellectual commitment
-Lectures and seminars will be face-to-face.
