Métodos de ensino e atividades de aprendizagem
Each student, should choose a biotechnological Project from available information in a script (includes patents). In addition, the student must make the required adjustments and corrections, in order to perform an economic analysis of the project. After discussion with the supervisors, alteration should be made, observing their impact on the economic analysis. Students should also perform mass and energy balances to each piece of equipment, as well as to scale up them.
In the case of a curricular internship, students must choose, propose and contact companies, faculties where they would like to work. They should also write a work plan to be discussed with the supervisors.
