Other comments on the Evaluation

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT:

The student must be examined of all the subject contents in the ordinary exam, if the final grade of continuous assessment is less than 5 and also in the following cases:

  • The no realisation or delivery of any of the activities.
  • Obtain a grade to inferior 4.0 points over 10 in any of the parts (theory and problems) of the final exam.
In the case that they do not fulfill those conditions, the maximum qualification of the student by continuous evaluation will be 4.0.
 In any case, the student that has passed the continuous evaluation, will have the possibility to attend to the ordinary exam to improve his/her grade.

INTENSIVE COURSE

In the case that the students do not pass the ordinary exam, they have to attend the extraordinary exam in July. The Defense University Center proposes for these students an intensive course of reinforcement during the months of June and July of 15 hours in three weeks, with the aim to prepare the exam. 

ETHICAL COMMITMENT:

It is expected that students have an adequate ethical behaviour:

  • If is detected an unethical behaviour (cheating, plagiarism, use of unauthorised electronic devices or others) during written exams, the student will be penalized with the impossibility to pass the course by the modality of continuous assessment, obtaining a qualification of 0.0.
  • If this kind of behaviour is detected in ordinary or extraordinary exam, the student will obtain a qualification of 0.0.
  • In the case of the practices reports, the total or partial copy in a report (according to the opinion of the lecturers), will be penalized in the final note of the practices with a qualification of 0.0.
