Methodologies
|
Description |
Introductory activities |
To introduce the subject. |
Lecture |
Description of the contents of the subject. |
Seminars |
In-depth work on a particular topic. Further discussion of the lecture content, which is linked to professional skills.
Application to practical cases. |
Presentations / oral communications |
Oral presentation by students of a particular issue or case studies (previously presented in writing). |

|
Description |
Time that each professor has to speak to students and solve their doubts. Students can contact either by e-mail or in their offices. In the latter case, appointments have to be made. Dr. Cyril Godard: cyril.godard@urv.cat Dra. Noemí Cabello: ncabello@iciq.es |

Mixed tests |
System of continuous assessment, divided as follow:
-Tests: 55%
-Written exams: 45% |
|
|
Other comments and second exam session |
System of continuous assessment, divided as follow: -Tests: 55% -Written exam: 45% During the exams, any mobil telephone, tablet or other device that has not been expressly authorized for the exam must be switched off and out of view. Any attempt to pass any exam of any subject by fraudulent means (be this physical or electronic) will result in the student being awarded a fail for the exam in question. In addition to this, the gravity of the offence may lead the faculty/school to propose that the student be subjected to disciplinary proceedings, which will be initiated by a resolution from the rector. |
