Through the incorporation of curricular pathways related to research methodologies, the program seeks to understand the methodological foundations of research work and provide tools that facilitate the search and analysis of information, the writing of scientific articles, the formulation of research projects, and the communication of research results.

The proposal for the seminars in this area is currently being developed.
