The assessment of each student's level of achievement in the course takes into account the practical work, as well as the scientific and technical knowledge of the course. The final grade reflects this by combining the scores from the practical and theoretical parts as follows:

(a) Theory test (1st exam) (25%)

(b) Theory test (2nd exam) (25%)

(c) Practical exercises (50%)

To pass the course in the first examination period, it is mandatory to obtain at least a grade of 5 in each of the evaluation items (a), (b), and (c). The final grade will be calculated as a weighted average of all the evaluation items.

In the second examination period, it is possible to retake evaluation items (a), (b), and (c) where the grades were below 5. To successfully pass the course in the second examination period, a minimum grade of 5 must be achieved in the retaken items. Additionally, it is important to note that the grade assigned to the retaken evaluation item will be 5 (even if the final score is higher).

Not Evaluated: The student's final grade will be "Not Presented" if the student has not been evaluated in the written tests (a) and (b).

Honors: The award of an "Honors" title (MH) is at the discretion of the course faculty. The UAB regulations state that the honors title can only be awarded to students who have obtained a final grade equal to or greater than 9, and only up to 5% of the total enrolled students can be awarded an honors title.

Plagiarism: Without prejudice to other measures deemed appropriate and in accordance with current academic legislation, irregularities committed by a student during an assessment activity may result in the grade being changed to 0. Evaluation activities thus graded by this procedure will not be recoverable. If it is necessary to pass any of these assessment activities to pass the course, the student will not pass the course, without the possibility of retaking it in the second examination period of the same academicyear. These irregularities include, among others:

• Copying all or part of a practical, report, or any other assessment activity;
• Allowing others to copy your exercises/exam/work;
• Submitting a team project that has not been entirely done by the team members;
• Presenting as your own materials produced by a third party, even if they are translations or adaptations, and generally works with non-original and exclusive elements of the student;
• Using communication devices (such as mobile phones, smartwatches, tablets, etc.) during assessment activities, whether individual or in teams.

In the event that the student has committed irregularities in any assessment activity (and therefore will not be able to pass the course even in the second examination period), the final grade for the course will be the lower of either 3 or the weighted average of the grades. In summary: copying, allowing others to copy your work, or plagiarizing in any of the assessment activities equates to failing with a grade of 3 or lower.
