Students are required to obtain a final grade of at least 5.0 out of 10 to pass this subject. However, each of the three main parts making up the assessment (theory, case studies and lab sessions) can be compensated among them getting a grade of at least 4.0. Students passing any of the three parts (theory, case studies and lab sessions) are given the opportunity to keep this mark for the two grading opportunities (January and July), being only examined of those parts which they failed. However, all the teaching-learning process of this subject is based on the idea of being developed in the current term. This means that for successive terms the student is suppossed to fullfill all the assignments scheduled for those specific terms. The grade "No Show" will be given only to those students who have not participated in more than 20% of the activities being assessed during the term.
