Students must demonstrate that at the end of their studies they have a broad knowledge of the different subjects and be able to present and defend them.
Work can be done individually or in groups of up to 3 people. The defence will always be individual.
The Degree Final Project will have a director to supervise and supervise the student's work, who may belong to any of the areas of knowledge represented in the Degree.
The topic of the work will be established by mutual agreement between the student and the director within the thematic lines proposed by the Departments.
