Description |
| Document analysis |
Bibliographic selection related to the topic of study. At least 80% of the works that justify the interest of your research must be of scientific quality, in English and included in bibliographic databases such as Medline. |
| Oral presentation |
The work must be presented and defended before a panel to be appointed by the Master's Academic Committee. The examining board will be formed by three professors/doctors from the teaching staff of the degree. The evaluation of the work will take into account the report presented, the public presentation and the answers to the questions of the examining board. The scientific rigor, the consistency of the process developed and its original contributions will be especially valued. The reading and defense will take place in a public session during the academic year and will be called by the president of the examining board and made public on the Center's bulletin boards. Once the defense of the thesis is finished, each member of the examining board will formulate a written evaluation of the thesis, according to the competences achieved and defined, both generic and transversal, in the degree.
In accordance with article 5 of RD 1125/2003, the examining board will award a quantitative and a qualitative grade that will include the grade of "fail" (from 0 to 4.9), "pass" (from 5 to 6.9), "notable" (from 7 to 8.9) or "outstanding" (from 9 to 10).
The examining board may award the grade of "matrícula de honor" if the overall grade is "sobresaliente" (outstanding) and if all its members vote in favor, taking into account the regulations of each University in this regard. |
