Practical Content

The practical content is oriented towards the application of theoretical concepts through the resolution of real or simulated cases, utilizing specific computational tools (such as Excel Solver or R). For each of the theoretical blocks (linear programming, non-linear programming, multi-criteria programming, decision theory, and game theory), practical exercises will be developed to enable the student to:

• Formulate models from real or simulated statements.
• Implement and solve these models with specialized software.
• Analyze and interpret the obtained results.

Teaching Methodologies

M1a: Large Group Instruction: This includes lectures, the presentation of theory and general examples, and conferences.

M2a: Small Group Instruction: This involves seminars, debates, practical activities, and clarification of doubts.

Training Activities

For the evaluation of theory, a test will be conducted during the official examination periods, which will account for 80% of the final grade. The acquisition of skills HD03 and HD04 will be assessed.

For the evaluation of the practical component, a continuous assessment of student learning will be carried out, which will account for 20% of the final grade. The acquisition of skills HD03 and HD04 will be assessed.

The grade obtained from the practical component during the academic period may be retained for the official examinations of the same academic year.

The overall grade will correspond to the weighted score of the different aspects and activities that comprise the evaluation system. It should be noted that, to pass the course, a minimum grade of 5 out of 10 must be obtained.

For the final assessment of student knowledge, the entirety of the work completed throughout the course (exercise resolution, assignment presentation, participation in voluntary activities, etc.) will be meticulously reviewed. This section may serve to adjust the final grade, provided it exceeds 4.5 and does not surpass the maximum possible score.
