Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

Title Weighting Hours ECTS Learning Outcomes
Attendance and participation 10% 0 0 CA14, KA13, KA14, KA15
Development activities of the subject 30% 0 0 CA14, CA15, CA16, KA12, KA13, KA14, KA15, SA10
Report / individual work 60% 0 0 CA14, CA15, KA13, KA14, KA15, SA10

The evaluation will take into account the established activities, with the weighting set to determine the final result. The qualifications of the activities will be carried out in a maximum period of 15 business days.

The subject does not accept a Synthesis Test for students who enroll for the second time.

In this subject, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is allowed as an integral part of the development of the work, as long as the final result reflects a significant contribution from the student in analysis and personal reflection. The student will have to clearly identify which parts have been generated with this technology, specify the tools used and include a critical reflection on how these have influenced the process and the final result of the activity. Non-transparency in the use of AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may result in a penalty in the grade for the activity, or greater sanctions in serious cases.

Note: Given that the faculty indicates that all Master's subjects - with the exception of the TFM - must have the single assessment option, this will take place on March 3, 2026. Students who do not pass the 50% of the assessment activities established will have the option to recover them with the corresponding deliveries on March 17, final work delivery date, two weeks after the end of classes. Plagiarism or copying will mean failure, communicating to the coordination of the degree.
