Laboratories and learning spaces

The laboratory's learning spaces and equipment allow the improvement of theoretical knowledge and practical competences related to several areas of promotion of Sustainability Technologies:

Solving sustainability problems using data generation, processing and modeling of different origins (Data Modeling Areas);

Sustainable food consumption and waste recycling (Sustainable Consumption Experimental Demonstration Area);

Secondary and multiple use and recycling of materials for the creation of new product prototypes (Eco design zone).

Open theoretical and practical learning zones have been established in the laboratory, promoting the cooperation of individuals participating in different projects, training streams and challenge solving groups, interdisciplinary learning and ensuring the conditions for continuous hybrid learning in each zone
