The subject is organized in 3 parts:
(i) Project management;
(ii) Lean innovation and design thinking;
(iii) Project development.

After the first phase, students do an exercise to create a project management environment.
In the second phase, problems that come from companies are heard and the students make a proposal.
In the third phase, after selecting proposals, we work towards a minimum viable product.
