Assessment comments

In order to pass the subject it is necessary to fulfill the following conditions:

- To obtain global qualification equal or higher than 50%.

- To obtain qualification equal or higher than 2.5/10 in the supervised project.

- To complete the oral presentation.

- To actively attend to the colleagues presentations.

If the student obtains global qualification equal or higher than 50% but any of the previous conditions is not fulfilled, the final qualification will be Fail (4.5/10).

In the second chance the student will be allowed to retake 80% of the total qualification: supervised project, oral presentation and objective test. Only the qualification of the laboratory practices can not be retaken. The qualification of the laboratory practices obtained in the first chance will be kept for the second chance.

All students that do not complete the objective test will be considered as "not presented", even though they complete the laboratory practices, the supervised project and/or the oral presentation.

Qualification for partial-time students will be assigned using the same rules as for ordinary students. Partial-time students must attend to the oral presentations of their colleagues too. Attendance to lectures and laboratory practices are not compulsory for any student.

Those students who repeat the subject because they did not reach the minimum mark the previous year will be able to maintain the partial marks (practical exam, supervised project, oral presentation or theoretical exam). In order to save these partial marks they have to tell the teacher the first week of the course.
