Assessment comments

Assessment criterions

In order to pass this course, it will be necessary to obtain a minimum score of 4 points out of 10 in the mixed objective/subjective test and the supervised project. If this requirement is not met, the qualification will be "Fail", even when the average of all the activities that are part of the assessment will give a result equal to or greater than 5 points out of 10. 

It will be an essential requirement to be evaluated to regularly attend and actively participate in the classroom and interactive sessions and in the different seminars organized.

The grade of "Not present" will only be given to students who only participated in course activities worth under 20% of the final grade; regardless of the grade obtained in these activities. 

The assessment criterions indicated will be valid both in the first and in the second opportunity of evaluation. The grade obtained by students who pass a part of the course with a mixed exam (i.e. partial exam), will be valid only for the ongoing academic year. If a student in such situation fails to pass the complete course in either the first opportunity or the second opportunity, her/his final grade will be "Fail", implying that she/he will have to re-take the whole course during incoming academic years.  

Students taking the anticipated December opportunity will be subject to the same criteria as those applying to the second opportunity.

Additional information

Fraudulent behavior in any of the parts subject to assessment will result in the grade of "Fail (0)" in the final assessment. 

It is forbidden to access the examination room with any device allowing for data transmission and/or warehousing when any of the evaluations is taking place  (mobile phones, smartwatches...).
