• Methods to promote interdisciplinarity  Almost all the students join the programme with prior professional experience which enables them to ask their own questions and contribute elements of real interdisciplinarity to the subjects being studied. Having adult students from the Southern hemisphere gives the staff a real incentive to focus their teaching on problem solving, adopt correct scientific methods and ensure quality learning. Very often this will involve introducing elements from other disciplines and calling on the expertise of students in the auditorium.  
• Variety of teaching strategies and learning situations  The teaching methods used on this programme are relatively traditional, with special emphasis on completing exercises and developing the ability to identify and tackle real problems.
