Assessment comments

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE FINAL (WRITTEN) REPORT

It is recommended that the final report of the final dissertation is signed by the supervisor or supervisors. It is important to consider, though, that this will never be a substitute for the official authorisation of the defense signed in the "secretaría virtual" by the supervisor/s.

-The format of the report will also be evaluated, and it must conform to the following basic requirements:

1. Maximum 25 pages, not including the cover, the supervisor signature page, the summary and the index. 

2. Margins not below 2 cm (top, bottom, left and right)

3. Body text: Arial (or equivalent), 12 points / Captions and headings in figures and tables: not less than 10 points

4. Single or 1,5 lines spacing

5. Annexes (graphics/tables/extra figures) may be added if necessary

6. Recommendations:

        -Double-sided pages

        -Avoid using plastic

-The supervisor or supervisors will decide whether they want to use plagiarism detection software or not, although the use of turnitin is strongly recommended. The reports not analysed using turnitin can be presented, although they will not be included in the institutional repository of the University of A Coruña (RUC)


REQUIREMENTS FOR THE ORAL PRESENTATION

1.
The student will present the aims, methodology, results and conclusions of their project in a maximum time of 15 minutes (10 minutes is recommended). The evaluation committee will inform the student of the available time at the beginning of the defence.

2. After the project is presented by the student, they will discuss their results with the evaluation committee. Members of the committee will make all the comments and questions they consider relevant, although a maximum time of 5 minutes per member is strongly recommended.
