It is required to attend the laboratory practicals in order to be evaluated, as well as to complete the obligatory tasks in the seminars in due time and form.

Not completing the practicals will not allow the student to pass the subject, and the student who does not complete them will not be able to attend the mixed test (exam).

In order to be considered as "NOT PRESENTED", the mixed exam must not have been taken.

If the student does not pass the subject in the first option, he/she will only be able to take the mixed exam in the second opportunity.

If the number of honours that can be awarded is reached in the first option, none will be awarded in the second option, even if the maximum mark is obtained.

In the case of very exceptional, objectively justifiable and adequately justified circumstances, the teaching staff may totally or partially exempt a student from part of the evaluation process. This student would have to undergo a specific examination that leaves no doubt as to his/her level of knowledge, competences, skills and abilities.

Students who are recognised as part-time or with academic dispensation will be evaluated on practice and theory.

The fraudulent and proven performance of the tests or evaluation activities will directly imply the qualification of failing "0" in this subject in the corresponding opportunity.

Methodologies	Description
Laboratory practice	Laboratory practices are required to be attended by all students. They include an experimental approach to basic aspects of microbiology and immunology so that students are properly introduced to the basic processes and methodologies of these disciplines.
Seminar	Different types of seminars will be held in which the theoretical contents of the disciplines of this subject will be studied in depth. Some of them may be a consolidation of the contents dealt with in the lectures or in the practical sessions. All the seminars will try to stimulate the students' continuous work throughout the four-month period. They may be evaluated jointly with the master session in a mixed test, and also by means of a specific evaluation.
Mixed objective/subjective test	Written exam in which the degree of knowledge and understanding achieved by the students will be assessed.
Guest lecture / keynote speech	Presentation by the teaching staff of the theoretical bases of the subject.
