Evaluation system
The evaluation of the student in the Master's Degree in Software Engineering and Computer Systems will be given by three well differentiated parts:
- Subjects: The different subjects included in this Master will be evaluated through a continuous assessment and a final face-to-face test.
- The continuous evaluation represents 40% of the final grade and takes into account the following criteria: (a) Student participation (up to 10% of the grade); (b) Work, projects and practices in laboratories (up to 30% of the grade); and (c) Self-assessment test (up to 10% of the grade).
- The final physical examination represents 60% of the grade.
- The continuous evaluation represents 40% of the final grade and takes into account the following criteria: (a) Student participation (up to 10% of the grade); (b) Work, projects and practices in laboratories (up to 30% of the grade); and (c) Self-assessment test (up to 10% of the grade).
- The final physical examination represents 60% of the grade.
- Internships in the company (external internships): In order to carry out internships in the company, a continuous evaluation will be carried out during the realization of the internships, both by a tutor assigned by the company and by the corresponding subject teacher. The final grade will be obtained based on two criteria: (a) Evaluation of the external tutor (40% of the overall grade); and (b) Report of practices, which will be supervised and corrected by a professor from the University (60% of the overall score).
- Final Master's Project: The Master's Final Project will be subject to continuous monitoring by the Master's End of Work Director, who will finally be the final author. The final evaluation will correspond to a commission composed of three professors from the knowledge area. The commission will assess not only the project, but also the oral defense of it.
