The evaluation components will have the following weights in the final classification (NF):

Continuous evaluation:

- Knowledge assessed in theoretical-practical test (NT): 70% (minimum grade of 7 points)

- Knowledge assessed in the work of a project/case study (NP): 30% (minimum grade of 10 points)

  according to the following formula: Final Grade=NT*0.7+NP*0.3 (minimum grade of 10 values)

Assessment by exam:

Final grade = Exam Grade (minimum grade of 10)

Approval Conditions:

The final grade of the course will be calculated as follows:

- Theoretical grade (NT): the minimum test grade is 7 values (without rounding), with a weight of 70%.

- Final exam grade (NE) obligatorily equal to or greater than 10 points.

- Practical grade (NP): calculated based
