Basic competences
Have and understand knowledge that can provide a base or opportunity of being original in the development and/or application of ideas, often in a research context
Students should know how to apply their acquired knowledge and their ability in problem-solving in new or little known environments within extensive (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their field of study.
Students should be able to integrate knowledge and deal with the complexity of making judgments from information which even if incomplete or limited includes reflections on the social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgment.
Students know how to communicate their findings, knowledge and latest reasons underlying them to a specialised and non-specialised public, in a clear and unambiguous way
Students should have learning skills which allow them to continue studying in a way that will have to be largely self-directed or autonomous.
