Other comments on the Evaluation
1. Ordinary exam

1.1 Continuous assessment

According to the guidelines of the degree and the agreements of the academic commission, a continuous assessment learning system will be offered.

The marks are valid only for the current academic year.

The schedule of the different assessment tests will be available at the beginning of each academic semester.

Continuous assessment consists of the following four parts:

1. Practices (35%), which are divided into:

  • Development of the practices: realization of the practices of the matter. Missing is only allowed a session for justified reasons and must be recovered in another shift to the extent of the time possibilities. Your grade will be pass or fail.
  • Laboratory practices report (35%).

2. Classroom exams (40%), which are roughly divided into:

  • Objective tests (20%).
  • Questions and exercises (20%).

3. Presentation (15%): The results of the work on a specific topic of the subject will be presented orally.

4. Systematic observation (10%). In addition, the student's participation in carrying out activities proposed for their autonomous work and participation in tutorials will be taken into account.

The final grade, which is scored out of a maximum of 10 points, is the sum of the grades for each part if the following conditions are met:

  • Obtain a passing grade in laboratory practices (attendance at least two thirds of the practices).
  • Obtain a minimum score of 40% in the practice report, and in the classroom exams.

If any of the above requirements is not met, the final grade will be the sum of the grades of each part, but limited to a maximum score of 4.9 points. Students who have not reached a minimum score of 40% in the evaluation of the report of the practices will have a term to make the appropriate improvements until the official date of the ordinary or extraordinary exam. Students who have not reached a minimum score of 40% in the classroom exams will be able to recover them in the official date of the ordinary or extraordinary exam maintaining the percentages of the continuous assessment.

To pass, students must obtain a total score equal to or greater than 50% of the maximum grade (5 points).

The exams of objective tests and exercises will be divided into two sessions distributed throughout the academic semester. The first exam will be performed in the middle of teaching period (during the hours of a theoretical class) and the second exam will take place on the date of the final exam.

1.2 Global exam

Students who do not opt ​​for continuous assessment will have to take two exams similar to those of continuous assessment (objective test and exercises) and, they will have to make an oral presentation on one of the topics of the subject to choose between two options, if they have not previously requested the faculty to choose the topic. In addition, they must have obtained a pass grade in the laboratory practices.

It is understood that the completion of practices is mandatory regardless of the call to which they are presented.

To pass, you must obtain a minimum of 40% in each part and add a total of at least 5 points.

2. Extraordinary exam

In this call the evaluation will be as in the ordinary exam. It will be necessary to have passed the laboratory practices during the academic year.

3. Ethical commitment

The student is expected to exhibit appropriate ethical behavior. In the case of detecting unethical behavior (cheating, plagiarism, use of unauthorized electronic devices, or others) in any of the works or exams carried out, the final grade will be FAIL (0), and the incident will be reported to the corresponding academic authorities for prosecution.
