Continuous evaluation: The student's work throughout the course will be evaluated. In the final qualification, the tests carried out throughout the course (practical cases) will represent 60% and the final exam (to be made on the official date) 40%. To pass the subject, it will be compulsory to attend the final exam and to obtain qualification higher than 4 points (out of 10). In case of not obtaining in the final exam the minimum qualification to pass the subject, the grade to appear in the official record will be the minimum between 4.9 and the final qualification (weighted). Second opportunity: In the second opportunity the same scale will be applied as in the continuous evaluation, with the practicals carried out throughout the course accounting for 60% and the final exam for 40%. In this case the qualifications of the practicals carried out throughout the course will be maintained and only the final exam will be repeated, in which a qualification higher than 4 points (out of 10) must be obtained in order to pass the subject. In case of not obtaining in the final test the minimum qualification to pass the subject, the grade to appear in the official record will be the minimum between 4.9 and the final qualification (weighted). Global evaluation: As an alternative to the continuous evaluation system, students may choose, according to the mechanism established by the School, to be evaluated with a final exam that will represent 100% of the qualification. In this case, it will be necessary to obtain a qualification higher than 5 points (out of 10) in order to pass the subject. Students are strongly requested to fulfill a honest and responsible behavior. It is considered completely unacceptable any alteration or
fraud (i.e., copy or plagiarism) contributing to modify the level of
knowledge and abilities acquired in exams, evaluations, reports or any
kind of teacher’s proposed work. Fraudulent behavior may cause failing
the course for a whole academic year. An internal dossier of these
activities will be built and, when re-offending, the university rectorate
will be asked to open a disciplinary record. |
