All students are entitled to two examination calls: - Ordinary call, in the teaching semester. - Extraordinary call, in June/July In each call, the student can choose to be assessed using
the continuous assessment (CA) system or, alternatively, opt for a Global
Assessment (GA) exam. The default assessment is the CA. Students must inform the teacher about their withdrawal from continuous assessment by email before October 15th. The choice of the GA
implies the waiver of the right to be assessed through the remaining CA
activities; it also implies the waiver of the grade obtained up to that moment
in any of the tests already taken. Continuous assessment (CA): - Attendance to lectures and practical sessions is mandatory (except
for justified reasons).
- First opportunity (ordinary call): The final grade is the weighted average of the grades corresponding to practical work (30%), problems and exercises (35%) and midterm exam (35%). If a student does not earn a grade of at least 5 points, he or she may waive the midterm exam grade and take a final exam on the official date of the first GA exam. In this case, the final grade will be the weighted sum of the grade for the practical work (30%) and the final exam (70%).
- Second opportunity (extraordinary call June/July): The grade will be the weighted sum of the practical work mark (30%) and the final exam mark (70%), which will be taken on the official date of the second GA exam call.
Global assessment (GA, in the case of waiving continuous assessment): - First opportunity
(ordinary call): 100% of the mark is achieved through a final exam. - Second opportunity
(extraordinary call in June/July): 100% of the mark is achieved through a final exam.
* Only for Spanish students: The assessment in the "Convocatoria Fin de Carrera" will be through GA exam (100%). The dates the GA exams (first and second call)
and the "Convocatoria Fin de Carrera" exams are those approved by the Faculty Board for the academic year 2025/26. See https://fccee.uvigo.es. Students must take into account Title VII (The use
of illicit means) of the Regulation on the assessment, grading, quality of teaching and the student learning process. |
