| Learning verification modality | Oral exams. The exam aiming to ascertain the knowledge level acquired by the student. |
| Extended program | Provide students with the necessary skills in environmental sustainability, aimed at a conscious choice of plants according to their use in Interior Design, Exhibit Design or Retail Design. Program: - Study the soil chemical characteristics as a function of the availability of nutrients for plants. - Principles of plant physiology (radical absorption and chlorophyll photosynthesis). - Fertilization and use of growth media (organic fertilizer, peat, nutrients solutions in hydroponic). - Valorization of waste materials in order to reuse them in the design and management of green areas. - Choice of plants according to their use in Interior Design, Exhibit Design or Retail Design. - Eco-sustainable solutions in the design and management of green areas. |
