Other comments on the Evaluation
There are two evaluation systems. Choosing a system excludes the other. To qualify under the system of continuous
evaluation, students are required to attend 80% of the total lecture hours with academic progress and involvement.
Therefore students not attending the total hours of the percentage established will lose this option.
Students making use of the continuous evaluation count 100% in the assessment of their final grade with the course
assignments and testings. The failure to complete the assignments requested along the course will be counted as a zero.
The assignments requested must be delivered or submitted by the deadlines and dates marked beforehand.
Students making use of the only evaluation or final examination sit for examination with a final overall assessment, taking place on the oficial date established by the School of Industrial Engineering. To this end, students should consult the School web site, where the examination date and time are specified in accordance to students’ subject attendance either Campus or City Centre (Torrecedeira).
The only examination is computed as follows: Overall final assessment 60% for Use of English 40%; oral comprehension
(listening) 20%; reading comprehension 20%; writing 20%. The other 40% left computes for oral presentation and speaking.
Regarding July assessment (second call assessment) continuous evaluation students will undergo examination for the
specific parts of the subject contents not overcome; while students of the only examination who failed in the previous exam
notification (first call) must undergo an assessment of the total subject contents (100%).
