The bachelorship in Production Technology has been adjusted according to results from an assessment performed on its former curriculum after eight years of implementation.
Adjustments were made regarding the subjects contained in the curriculum: some subjects were replaced, others had their contents modified, and others suffered a name change. The adjustments led to the corresponding clock and credit hours being revised.
