Obtenção de frequência

Assessment is continuous and is based on mandatory laboratory work and two tests to be carried out during the semester. At the time of exams, the recovery of tests and laboratories in arrears is carried out.
To obtain classification in the laboratory, it is mandatory to prepare all test reports and laboratory work.
In order to be considered in the evaluation, the reports must all be delivered on time and individually approved with a minimum grade of 10 values. Reports will be given an overall grade.
The minimum grade for each test is 8.5 values. The test average must be equal to or greater than 9.5 values.

Students who did not complete the laboratories during the semester must do a report on the contents of the laboratories.
The delivery date of this report is the date of the appeal exam.
The classification of this report replaces the laboratory reports grade, the report minimum grade is 10 values.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

Final grade (Tests) = 0.75 (Test 1 grade + Test 2 grade)/2 + 0.25 (Report grade)

Final grade (Exam) = 0.75 (Test 1 grade + Test 2 grade)/2 + 0.25 (Report grade)
