Other comments on the Evaluation

End of Degree Project Evaluation Board

The Evaluation Board will be formed by 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 formed, with
their corresponding alternate members, to guarantee the proper development of the
evaluation process.

End of Degree Project report

With sufficient tiem in advance, the
Final Degree Project committee will establish the deadlines for
the presentation and defense, as well as the delivery of a project
report. Failure to subit the report within the established deadline will result in the
non-presentation to the evaluation process.

Students will have a regulation for the elaboration and presentation of the report. For the 2023-24 academic year, these regulations will be available on the faculty website and on the teaching platform.


Presentation and defense of the Final Degree Project


The Evaluating Board will publish in advance the order of presentation, place and time of the evaluation sessions, which will be available to all students.

Grades


At the end of the evaluation
process, the Evaluating Board will publish jointly the grades received by the students.

If a student passes the tutor's evaluation, but obtains a failing grade
in any other section of the Final Degree Project, the examining board
will provide the student and his/her tutor with a report containing
recommendations for improving the work at the next opportunity. In
particular, it will be emphasized if the negative grade obtained by the
student can be recovered in a second opportunity in the same course or
if, on the contrary, the student must complete the whole work in another
academic year.

Second chance

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 the first opportunity so specified.

The Final Degree Project Committee will establish 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. It will also specify the date, place and time of the
presentation and defense of the project.


Schedule



The final degree project does not have an established schedule; each student
will establish their schedule according to the supervisor, usually during the
second term of the academic year.
