Obtenção de frequência

Continuous assessment or final exam.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

The final grade for the course is calculated as follows:

NF = 0.4 x TP + 0.6 x Proj_Lab

Subtitle:

NF - Final Grade
Project - Project Note
TP - Research paper note

Grades:
(1) There is no minimum grade in the two assessment components;
(2) Obtaining a final grade greater than or equal to 9.50 values (NF >= 9.50 values) allows the student to pass the course unit.
