    allows a reasoned synthesis by the students of what is their future field of action as designers. The
    various shifts can be taught by teachers with different profiles and the students should enrol in shifts
    according to these profiles. Some classes should be reserved for sessions on research
    methodologies to be taught by teachers with research experience. In a first lesson the different
