Final Project

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  This "final project" curricular unit within the postgraduate course brings together the themes and skills mobilised by the students and is intended to be a project unit open to the development of the subjects taught by the students. It is divided into the following components: Field of Action The field of action refers to the general area in which the final project will be developed. This field can vary widely depending on the student's wishes. For example: Cybersecurity, privacy, computer security, data protection, cloud security, ... Area of Expertise The area of activity is focussed on the set of specific disciplines within the field of action. Final projects must focus on these areas. Intervention Domains Intervention domains refer to the specific contexts where the project could have a direct impact. For example: Private at company level, public, community, etc.

• MetodologiaMethodology

  Teaching and Assessment Methodology To ensure that the programme contents are effectively aligned with the learning objectives, the teaching and assessment methodology must also be carefully planned: Theoretical and Practical Classes: Combination of theoretical classes to provide the necessary knowledge and practical sessions to apply this knowledge in real contexts. Workshops and Seminars: Interactive sessions that allow for the discussion of project methodologies, research practices, and case studies. Tutoring and Mentoring: Continuous support through tutoring and mentoring to guide students in the development of their projects. Continuous Assessments: Use of continuous assessments, including progress reviews, interim reports and regular feedback, to ensure that students are on track to achieve the learning objectives. Project Defence: Final presentation or defence of the project where students demonstrate their results.
