Within the deadline foreseen in the calendar, students must submit the TFG, with the authorization of the tutor in the open space in the Moodle classroom of the subject. To avoid possible incidences, they will also have to send it by e-mail to the teacher responsible for the subject. Within the deadline, the tutor of the TFG will have to submit an evaluation report in which a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the work done by the student will be made, according to the document that the professor responsible for the TFG will make available and to which the monitoring sheet will be added.
Students must upload the document of Original Work Commitment in the open space for the submission of the TFG. Without this document the TFG will not be graded.
The maximum evaluation with which the tutor can grade the TFG is 10, taking into account that the final weight of the grade is 70%.
Students will elaborate an Abstract and a Poster that will be delivered together with the TFG in the Moodle classroom (10%).
All students will defend their TFG before the Evaluation Committee (20%).
The Evaluation Committee will evaluate the Poster that the student will elaborate, as well as the oral presentation.
The TFG defense calendar will be published in the Moodle classroom with the date, time, and place of the defense.
Failure to submit the TFG on the indicated date will result in a "Not Evaluable".
Recovery
If the student obtains a grade of 4 or less than 5, the possibility of recovering the TFG may be offered. The recovery will consist of making the modifications that may allow the student to pass the work in the September call. If approved, the maximum grade will be a 5. The recovery may be suspended and in this case the student will have to register for the TFG again in the following academic year. If a grade lower than 4 is obtained, the student will not be able to recover the TFG and will have to re-enroll in the subject the following academic year.
Exceptional calls
FEBRUARY CALL. Only for students who are ready to finish their studies in the February call.
SEPTEMBER CONVOCATION. Exceptionally, the TFG may be submitted in September, always in agreement with the tutor and the coordination of the TFG.
If the TFG tutor fails the TFG, the student has the possibility of an ordinary review, by the same tutor. Likewise, students may request an extraordinary review through the mechanisms provided for in the academic regulations.
Other considerations - Plagiarism
Without prejudice to other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and in accordance with current academic regulations, "in the event that the student performs any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation in the grade of an act of evaluation, this act of evaluation will be graded with a 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be instituted. In case of several irregularities in the evaluation acts of the same subject, the final grade of this subject will be 0".
If during the correction of the TFG there are indications that it has been done with answers assisted by artificial intelligence or by third parties, the tutor may complement the activity with a personal interview to corroborate the authorship of the text.
Bibliography
Consultable through the Moodle space of the subject.
Specific bibliography recommended by each tutor.
