Didactic methods
The teaching will be carried out with frontal lectures and with electronic support for the projections of teaching material.
Learning assessment procedures
Written exam with mixed open and multiple choice questions. The student must demonstrate that he has understood the theoretical notions related to environmental health engineering, in particular the main steps of the water purification and potabilization process as well as those relating to the integrated waste cycle. The student must also be able to present the topics in an appropriate technical language.
Evaluation criteria
For multiple answers, a point will be assigned to each correct answer, while for those with open answers, the congruity of the answer provided with respect to what is requested, the use of technical terms and the presence of information of a qualitative but also quantitative nature will be assessed.
Exam language
