Methodologies
Methodologies   ::  
  Description
Problem solving, classroom exercises The professor will guide students in applying theoretical concepts and results to problem solving, encouraging critical thinking at all times. Exercises will be proposed and students will solve them, thus acquiring skills in using the necessary tools for problem solving.
Practicals using information and communication technologies (ICTs) in computer rooms Development and analysis of structural models using finite elements software.
Lecture Theoretical classes in which the theoretical foundations of the subject are exposed, reasoned and deduced. At the end of each section, simple exercises are solved to clarify the theory explained.

Personalized attention
 
Lecture
Description
By appointment, the professor will attend to the student, resolving any doubts he/she may have.

Assessment
  Description Qualification
Practicals using information and communication technologies (ICTs) in computer rooms Practical exam with computer software 30%
Others There will be two types of written tests:
1. Final exam of the whole course
2. Individual work and/or periodical quizzes to be done by the student.		 1. 60%
2. 10%
 
Other comments and second call

It is mandatory to obtain a grade of 5 out of 10 in order to pass the course.

In the second call, the results of the tests taken throughout the semester will be valid, although it is not mandatory to have taken them. In the case of non-participation in tests and/or individual work, the grade of the final exam will be 100% of the evaluation.
