Seminar in English for Student and Near-Graduates

The seminar requires 12 hours of activities; it will grant the assignment of credits (according to the procedures of each course) and an intermediate Open Badge.

The seminar is divided into three parts:

The in-person laboratories will take place in the appointed university library.
