Laboratory sessions 20.00% 20.00% The qualification of this secction comprises both the elaboration of the workbook of practices and of a specific examination of the practices.
Total: 100.00% 100.00%  
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).

Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
  • Continuous assessment:
    The test will consist of two parts. One of theory and another of problems. The minimum note to make average in each of them is 4.0. To pass the subject it is necessay that the Laboratory part is passed (note exceeding 5.0 points).
    To make media with the part of practices and seminars, it is necessary to have at least a 4.5 of average in the exams ordinary or extraordinary.

    The minimum note to pass the subject is a 5.
