Other comments on the Evaluation

End of Degree Project Evaluation Board


It will consist of three
professors of the degree and will be appointed at the proposal of the Final
Degree Project Committee. As many boards as necessary will be set up, with
their corresponding alternate members, to guarantee the proper conduct of the
evaluation process.

End of Degree Project report

With sufficient time in advance, the TFG Committee will establish the deadlines for the submission of the defense application and the TFG report. Failure to submit the TFG report within the established deadlines will result in the non submission to the evaluation process of the subject. The guidelines included in the norms for the preparation of the TFG report, which will be published on the faculty website and on the teaching platform, will be followed.

Presentation and defense of the Final Degree Project


The Evaluating Board will publish in advance the score criteria, the exhibition order, place and time of celebration, being available to all students.

Ratings


At the end of the evaluation
process, the Evaluation Board will publish jointly the grades received by the students enrolled in the subject.

If a student obtains a grade of suspense, the evaluating committee will give him and his tutor a report gathering the

recommendations to improve the work towards a later evaluation. In particular,
it will be emphasized if the negative grade obtained by the student can be
recovered in a second opportunity of the same course or if, on the contrary,
the student must complete all the work in another academic year.

Second call
The student may recover in a second opportunity of the same term those aspects
that did not exceed in the first, as long as the report obtained by the Evaluating Board
in that first opportunity so specified.

The Final Degree Project Committee will establish and make public in advance
the terms that will govern the evaluation process in the second opportunity. It
will include the deadlines for the submission of the defense request and the
tutor's report. I will also specify the date, place and time of the
presentation and defense of the project to the Committee.


Schedule:



The final degree project does not have an established schedule; each student
