Base Knowledge
Approval in curricular units that integrate the “General and Scientific” and “Technical” training components of the course.
Teaching Methodologies
In theoretical classes a theoretical exhibition of each subject is made.
In theoretical-practice classes the theoretical exposure is supplemented and good maintenance practices are analyzed. Procedures and equipment used in asset maintenance are also studied.
In practice-lab classes, practice diagnostic, maintenance and repair cases are resolved.
