Second opportunity:

Students will have to repeat only those parts (exercises and case study)
in which they did not reach a pass in the first opportunity. In the second
opportunity the case study will be submitted as a written essay (between
2,000-3,000 words, excluding references).

Students officially exempt from class attendance:

Students will have
to hand in all course exercises (60%) and submit an essay on a case study
(between 2,000-3,000 words, excluding references) (40%).

All exercises and tests will be done in English. Overall correctness in
language and in the use of formal conventions is indispensable. Therefore,
grammatical and orthographic mistakes will be penalised.

Those who are officially registered as part-time students, and have been granted permission not to attend classes, as stipulated in the regulations of this University, will be assessed in either of the opportunities according to the same criteria specified for the second opportunity.

Part-time students who have been granted a "dispensa académica" must contact the teacher at the beginning of the semester in order to design the necessary changes and adjustments relating to the different activities to be carried out along the academic year.

LINGUISTIC ACCURACY

Both the theoretical and practical examination must meet the minimum requirements of linguistic correctness (spelling and grammar, punctuation, syntax concordance, lexical precision, or formal register). The level in English language expected of students is equivalent to a C1 level. Deficiencies in this area will be penalized in qualifying.

Essays and written work may be tested through Turnitin in order to detect wrong citations, plagiarism or any other type of fraud. Should this occur, the rules for plagiarism will be applied. (Normasde avaliación, revisión e reclamación das cualificacións dos estudos de grao emestrado universitario). Turnitin recognises papers previously turned in by other people (or the student him/herself) at this university or other universities, as well as other material found on Internet.
