Curriculum Courses
As part of the requirements for submitting their Master Dissertations and Doctoral Theses, the students must complete a minimum of 54 credits (créditos), for Master students, 48 credits (créditos), for Doctoral students, and 102 credits (créditos), for Direct Doctoral students, in courses.
The chosen courses should respect the following structure:
- a minimum of 36 credits in required courses from the area the student is enrolled in;
- 6 credits in general required courses (SEM5892 - Bibliographic Research Methods, SEM5931 - Pedagogical Preparation or similar);
Doctoral students that have completed the credits in required courses during Masters may complete the credits in other required or elective courses.
