Specific action plan / execution |
|
Description |
Introductory activities |
Face-to-face session with the FDP coordinator where the students will be informed about the development of the work. |
Drafting of the bachelor’s degree/master’s degree thesis |
It is a project in the field of Biotechnology. It must be an original exercise done individually where all the competences acquired during the three years of the Degree's training are synthesized.
The FDP may be related to external practices or may be an independent topic.
It consists of two parts, a written memory and the oral presentation before a tribunal. |
Selecting/assigning the bachelor’s degree/master’s degree thesis |
The theme of the FDP will be proposed by the students according to their preferences, without prejudice to the fact that they can be contacted personally with the professors they consider appropriate. |
Mechanisms for coordinating and monitoring the bachelor’s degree/master’s degree thesis |
The coordinator will guide the students on the structure of the FDP in an informative session at the beginning of the course. The students can arrange visiting days to consult the different aspects that they want to clarify. |
Presentation and defence of the bachelor’s degree/master’s degree thesis |
The student have to deliver three copies of the bound memory at the school secretary and upload a copy on Moodle within the terms indicated in the Teaching Guide.
It will be evaluate the written report based on the evaluation model found in the FDP Regulations, (annex 2). If the work is evaluated positively it is passed to the oral defense. The coordinator will deliver the final grade to the students and in case it has not been approved, the will be informed of the necessary corrections and, if appropriate, of the beginning of a new process.
The oral presentation will be carried out on the date marked in the teaching guide. The duration of the exhibition is 15 minutes and 5 minutes of questions from the tribunal.
