Evaluation Methodology
Assessment by class attendance: The evaluation by class attendance is composed by the accomplishment of practical laboratory assignments throughout the classes, plus a written test.
Assessment by exam: The evaluation by exam is composed of the score obtained in the practical laboratory work performed during the classes and a written test in any examination period.
The final mark in each evaluation is obtained by the simple arithmetic mean between the practical laboratory component and the corresponding written component.
