The grade for each unit will be based on exams (70%) and the presentation and discussion of essays and problems (30%).

The overall grade for the module will be determined as the average of the final grades obtained for the individual units of the module, weighted by their ECTS, under the condition that:

• None of the final grades for the individual units is less than 3.5;
• Not more than one of the final grades for the individual units is less than 5.0.

In case any of these conditions are not fulfilled, the student will be given the option to recover the corresponding units. Also in the case that the conditions are fulfilled but the overall, weighted-average grade for the module is less than 5.0, the student will be given the option to recover the individual unit graded with less than 5.0.

The format of the recovery of a unit will be determined by its professors and the maximum grade that can be obtained for each recovered unit is 5.0.

"The dates of evaluation activities cannot be modified, unless there is an exceptional and duly justified reason why an evaluation activity cannot be carried out.
