2. Pre-Requisites

For students to achieve the learning objectives described is highly recommended to have passed the subjects of the preceding courses that allow them to have an idea of the whole, especially those of technological scope related to the calculation, design, and development of an engineering project.

Likewise, it is advisable to have knowledge of English, at least at a basic level.

3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession

We are faced with a discipline and a subject different from those dictated throughout the course of the degree, it can be said that it is atypical within the set of subjects, but nevertheless very typical within the engineering profession. We are facing a very formative subject, in which the student has to work as a team, must provide dedication, and in which he/she can glimpse something of what his/her profession is going to be.

It is not only that the student learns specific works that could be done throughout the course, what is involved is that he/she learns some methods, a way of working, a way of doing things that allows him to perform other different specific works. In addition, It is intended to acquire some qualities, a behavior and, why not say, a suitable temperament to work in the world of project engineering.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
Evaluation System Continuous assessment Non-continuous evaluation * Description
Projects 35.00% 35.00% In continuous assessment, it consists of the completion and delivery of academic work done outside of class, presented in class and supervised by the teacher individually or in small groups.
In non-continuous assessment, it consists of the completion of an academic work done outside of class individually that will be delivered and presented on the day of the final test.
Minimum mark for both evaluations: 4.0
Assessment of activities done in the computer labs 15.00% 15.00% In continuous assessment it consists of the delivery of the practical exercises carried out in the sessions as well as taking a test of the contents of the practices.
In non-continuous assessment, it consists of taking a test of the contents of the practices.
Minimum mark for both evaluations: 4.0
Final test 0.00% 40.00% It consists of taking a single evaluation test including theoretical-practical exercises similar to those carried out in the training activities throughout the course.
Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies 10.00% 10.00% In continuous assessment, it consists of the completion and delivery of problems by the students.
In non-continuous assessment, there will be a test related to these problems on the day of the final test.
Mid-term tests 40.00% 0.00% It consists of several tests including theoretical-practical exercises similar to those carried out in the training activities throughout the course.
Minimum mark for each partial: 4.0
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:
    Continuous evaluation of all training processes that will be weighted to obtain a final grade between 0 and 10 according to the current legislation (Real Decreto 1125/2003 de 5 de septiembre). The evaluation of the student is the result of the course follow-up and / or the exams or written tests that will consist of theoretical questions and practical exercises. The course follow-up is based on:

    - Evaluation of the assimilation of concepts and procedures through written tests.

    - Evaluation of the acquisition of practical skills through an ad-hoc built profile of competences that considers the documentation submitted by the student, individually or in small groups, through reports, the work developed, and the skills and attitudes shown during assessments and guided practical activities.

    - Evaluation of academic work carried out by students outside of class and supervised by the professor, individually or in small groups. The student must make, deliver, and defend before the professor a report with some of the proposed exercises. The professor will assess the presentation, exhibition, defense, and difficulty of the chosen exercises.

    - Evaluation of laboratory practices in the computer room with application of specific software by assessing the delivery of the work done in class and the realization of a practical test in the same classroom.

    The final grade of the student is from 0 to 10 points, with the following nuances:

    - To pass and be able to weight the subject of each partial, a minimum grade of 4 points must be obtained. Partial tests whose marks are less than 4 must be recovered along with the final test.

    - The grade obtained in the exercises of practices is saved until the extraordinary call.

    - The grade obtained in the elaboration of the project and the assessment of problem solving are saved until the extraordinary call.

    - Regular attendance at the practical classes is compulsory to be able to pass through continuous assessment.
  • Non-continuous evaluation:
    To pass the subject in the continuous assessment, they must pass the practical test, deliver and defend the work of the subject and take the final test that will include all the contents of the subject together with another test to evaluate the assessment of problem solving.

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
To pass the subject in the extraordinary call, they must pass the practical test, deliver and defend the work of the subject and take the final test that will include all the contents of the subject together with another test to evaluate the assessment of problem solving.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
As in the extraordinary call.
