| Met. Docent |
| Classes of theory and problems. Practices of laboratory with presentation of results and reports. |
| Met. Avaluació |
| The evaluation is elaborated from an examination of theory (1/3) and the reports of the laboratory practices (2/3). The attendance to the laboratory is obligatory. The minimum note to get the average will be 4/10 in theory and 5/10 in laboratory. |
