Master's Thesis Defense 

The student has to make a public defense of their Master's Thesis in the presence of an academic board, for an approximate time of 15 minutes. In the presentation, all the support resources that are considered necessary may be used. Once the exposition is over, a round of questions will be opened for the members of the board. The student will have to answer the questions and clarifications raised.

Students have two calls for the public defense of the MT, according to the official schedule that will be published at the relevant dates. For the assessment of the MT, an academic board will be constituted and the place, day and time for the defense will be made public, as well as the complete timetable of defenses.

Fraudulent performance of tests or evaluation activities, once verified, will directly imply the grade "0" in the subject in the corresponding cycle, thus invalidating any grade obtained in all the evaluation activities for the extraordinary cycle.

The assessment critieria reflected on table  A-II/1 of the STCW Code, and also reflected in the Quality System, are taken into account to design and perform the assessment.
