SECOND EXAMINATION.

For the evaluation of the second call, it is necessary to submit to the professor all the reports, practices and works requested during the lectures. The evaluation will be carried out through a written exam on the theoretical and practical contents of the class period. The exam will have a maximum grade of 50% of the final grade which will be completed with 50% related to the section "case study or final work of the course" in which the reports, practices and works presented and the student's participation during the lectures will be evaluated. The final work and case studies will be exactly the same. However, the sessions outside the classroom, or the oral presentation of the final work cannot be recovered.

EXTRAORDINARY CONVOCATIONS (DECEMBER).

The evaluation will be carried out through a written exam on the theoretical and practical contents belonging to the previous year's academic period, updated to the possible substantial modifications that may have occurred until the date of the exam. The result of the exam will be the student's grade. The possible demand of additional requirements of importance to be able to access this call will be communicated well in advance through the institutional Moodle.

During the development of the tests will not be allowed to handle any material except what is essential for the development of the test (pen and paper). The possession and use of mobile and/or electronic devices during the tests is strictly forbidden. The simple possession of such devices as well as notes, books, folders or various unauthorized materials during the evaluation tests, will result in the immediate withdrawal of the exam, expulsion from the same and its qualification as suspense, communicating the incident to the Academic Authority of the Center to perform the actions provided in the Guidelines for Action in Cases of Plagiarism, Copying or Fraud in Exams or Evaluation Tests, approved by the Standing Committee of the Governing Council of January 29, 2015.
