The course starts with an introductory lecture that describes how scientific projects are usually performed. Major points discussed are:.
The students will provide a short initial 10 min presentation of their master project summarizing the field of study, the topic and the project idea followed by 5 min of group discussion identifying the major technological and scientific questions.
These will be discussed and explained in detail in subsequent tutorials. The students will receive help for the preparation of this project by their lab supervisor understanding of the subject, feasibility of the proposed experiments and of regular discussions with the group of students. The mid-term exam consists in a 30 min oral presentation that summarizes the bibliographic background of the proposal and presents the main technical aspects, followed by questions from the reviewing committee researchers and faculty members , who will test the understanding of the project.
