Examination Methods

AIMS
The exam aims at evaluating both the level of knowledge acquired by the students and their ability to apply such knowledge to practical business situations.

CONTENTS
The exam covers all the contents of the course and it is differentiated between attending and not attending students.

ASSESSMENT METHODS
The exam consists of:
a) a written exam which includes five questions with a space of 10 lines for each answer;
b) an oral exam which is:
-compulsory for those students that have obtained a mark higher than or equal to 28/30 in the written test;
-optional for those students that have obtained a mark between 18/30 and 27/30 in the written test.

EVALUATION
A mark between 0/30 and 6/30 is attributed to each of the answers to the 5 questions included in the written exam. The final mark of the written exam is obtained by summing the marks of the 5 answers. A mark higher than or equal to 18/30 is required to pass the written exam. The oral exam questions the mark obtained in the written exam and can lead to three different outcomes: confirmation, increase or decrease of the mark of the written exam.
The evaluation takes into consideration the following elements: level of knowledge, ability to apply knowledge, appropriate use of the technical language.
