Presentation and objetives
In order to enhance your academic performance in this new stage that you are now starting, the Carlos III University is organising zero courses for you to acquire the knowledge and skills that the University considers essential for you to start your degree with a better preparation.
During the month of August, the University offers you a website where you will be able to find support material (videos and exercises) that will be of great help to prepare you for the Zero Course.
It is a very enjoyable way of assessing your knowledge, advancing your studies and interacting with your classmates.
It is important to work on the platform in August. In order to access it, each enrolled student will be provided with the corresponding login and password. You will also have this information available when you consult your assigned groups.
