Methodology
Details of the methodology:

The project-based methodology allows the student to relate the contents of the master's degree to the reality of the world that surrounds, and, above all, with their professional future, being at the center stage of their learning.
In addition, another important aspect of this methodology is that the exams are self-corrected, the same as the proposed activities-, That is, the teaching staff do not interact with the students once they are carrying out the master's degree, but they do offer feedback on predetermined student work they receive, allowing the student to get their assignments corrected by the teacher.
The subjects that make up the master's degree have been distributed in modules and for each of them a project has been defined aimed at the practical application of the contents linked to the reality of eSports. The student will develop them by working on the different aspects covered throughout the program.
