The evalutaion process has three main components:

 

a) Continuous evaluation – 30% of the final grade. Activities of reading articles on human resources, cases and exercises and active participation in class debates. Development of a work on the theme of one of the points of the program with implications in an organization or group of organizations with local links. At the discretion of the teacher, these activities can be carried out individually or in groups. In the latter case, members of a group who do not prove sufficient participation will get a 0 in this part of the assessment.

b) Partial liberatory examination (as long as the grade is greater than 4). 30% of the final grade

c) Final Exam. The contents of the entire course (with the exception of the part of the partial exam for those who have obtained more than 4 in that test) in a written exam that will be done following the academic calendar that is provided by the Faculty of Economics and Business. This exam has a weight of 40% of the final grade.

Class attendance: The student can be evaluated if he attends the classes in person with aminimum of 75% of the hours assigned to the subject.

The subject is approved by means of the continuous evaluation with the obtaining of a final note of a minimum of 5 out of 10 applying the weightings of each of the evaluation activities, provided that the weighted average of the note the partial exam and the final exam is equal to or greater than 4 of a note out of 10. All students have the obligation to carry out the evaluable tasks. The student will be considered NON-EVALUABLE only when he has not participated in any of the evaluation activities of the course. Therefore, a student who performs some component of continuous evaluation can no longer be qualified as "not evaluable" To access the re-evaluation students must obtain an average minimum grade of all evaluation activities of 3.5 out of 10. To participate in the re-evaluation, the student must have been evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject. The final grade of the student who has presented to the re-evaluation will be that of the exam, being the 5 the maximum note in the case of passing it.

Retake Process

 

The teachers of the subject will decide the modality of this test. If the student's course grade is 5 or higher, the student passes the course and it cannot be subject to further evaluation. To access the re-evaluation students must obtain an average minimum grade of all evaluation activities equal to or greater than 3.5 out of 10 and lower 5. To participate in the re-evaluation,the student must have been evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject. When the grade of the re-evaluation test is equal to or greater than 5, the final gradeof the subject will be PASS, with the maximum numerical grade being 5. When the grade of the re-evaluation test is less than 5, the final grade of the subject will be of FAIL being the numerical note the course note (and not the note of the re-evaluation test). In the case of a grade less than 3.5, the student must repeat the subject in the following course.  

 

Irregularities in evaluation activities

In spite of other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate, and inaccordance with current academic regulations, "in the case that the student makes any irregularity that could lead to a significant variation in the grade of an evaluation activity, it will be graded with a 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that can be instructed. In case of various irregularities occur in the evaluation of the same subject, the final grade of this subject will be 0". Section 10 of Article 116. Results of the evaluation.
