To pass the course there are two basic requirements:

1) Regular attendance to all evaluable activities; the attendance is compulsory, except for students with part-time or waiver of assistance, as indicated below.

2) To achieve a minimum score of 4.5 (out of 10) in every evaluable activities. If said minimum score is not achieved in any of these activities, the final grade will be Fail (4.0). To pass the subject, the overall rating may not be less than 5 (out of 10).

"Not attended" assessment mark will be applied when the conducted activities add up to less than 33% of the total score.

Only the marks obtained in Seminar and Supervised projects may be retained
for the second opportunity, provided they exceed the minimum of 4.5
previously quoted. Marks falling below implies its corresponding assessment must be repeated. The
specific retake schedule of these two tests depends on
the number of students who have to attend them, and will be published at the end of the
first assesment.

The mixed test's mark obtained in the second opportunity will replace the first one's.

Students assessed at the second opportunity may only qualify for Honors mark if
the maximum number of licenses for the course were not exhausted on the
first one.

- No mark will be retained for subsequent courses, i.e. the teaching-learning process
including assessment, will start over, which means that the students must
complete all scheduled activities.

In case of students with part-time or exemption from assistance all assessed activities can be conducted online, including the practices of databases search, and ranked as if they were in attendance, so the design of a specific protocol it is not necessary.
