2. Characterize a pre-project and a research project.
3. Identify and characterize the various phases of a research project.
4. Know how to choose a research theme and delimitate a problem.
5. Identify the main techniques for collecting and processing data, and interpretation of results.
6. Identify the main means of collecting information and literature review.
7. Develop and propose a small project (or pre-project) research.
The main issues to be addressed are:
