Through this Card, the student will indicate their priority over three different professors (and not subjects). The File will be considered by the Coordinator of the TFG at the time of definitively assigning the tutor, always within the periods indicated in the Calendar.
The students of Degrees Combined with Classical Studies will also have access to the conditions of the Card in the Virtual Campus of their own subject, but it will be the Coordinator of the Combined Degrees who will assign the tutorials.Students who take a stay outside the UAB as part of the university exchange programs during the fourth year can:a) do the TFG at a distance, except for the oral presentation, which must always be face-to-face.b) make an equivalent TFG at their host university, provided that it offers a TFG equivalent in number of TFG credits; in this case, it would be validated like any other subject.Once the process of presentation of the TFG is finished, students who have obtained a minimum grade of 9 points will be able to voluntarily publish their TFG in the DDD deposit of the UAB, sending a copy of the TFG in pdf and the appropriate documents duly fulfilled (which will be facilitated in the virtual Campus of the subject). This procedure must be managed through the TFG coordinator.

The evaluation system will be regulated through some cards with rubrics that the TFG Coordinator will make public in the Virtual Campus of the subject (see also the following section, about the Work Calendar). The aim is to obtain three evidences that weigh the evaluation in the following proportion: follow-up on the writing of the TFG (20% of the grade); written delivery of the TFG (40% of the grade); and oral defense (40% of the grade, decided by two members of the court).
In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted to an online format made available through the UAB’s virtual tools (original weighting will be maintained). Homework, activities and class participation will be carried out through forums, wikis and/or discussion on Teams, etc. Lecturers will ensure that students are able to access these virtual tools, or will offer them feasible alternatives.
In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject.

For the granting of the MH will be taken into account in 75% of the TFG and 25% note of the student's file of the last two years (3rd and 4th).
If the student wants his TFG to be published in the Digital Repository of Documents (DDD) of the UAB, as long as the TFG meets the quality requirements to be published (having obtained a minimum grade of 9), once the day has passed of the defense of the TFG, the student will have to deliver the authorization for the publication of the TFGduly executed and signed, together with the metadata sheet and a pdf copy of the work.
