Promoting the continuous improvement of working and study conditions of the entire university community is one the basic principles and goals of the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. Such commitment to prevention and the responsibilities arising from it concern all realms of the university: governing bodies, management team, teaching and research staff, administrative and service staff and students. The UPCT Service of Occupational Hazards (Servicio de Prevención de Riesgos Laborales de la UPCT) has published a "Risk Prevention Manual for new students" (Manual de acogida al estudiante en materia de prevención de riesgos), which may be downloaded from the e-learning platform ("Aula Virtual") under the `Act in an Emergency¿ section, `Technical Guides¿ tab, with instructions and recommendations on how to act properly, from the point of view of prevention (safety, ergonomics, etc.), when developing any type of activity at the University. You will also find, in the ¿Act in an Emergency¿, sectionrecommendations on how to proceed in an emergency or if an incident occurs. Particularly when carrying out training practices in laboratories, workshops or field work, you must follow all your teacher's instructions, because he/she is the person responsible for your safety and health during practice performance. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and do not put your safety or that of your classmates at risk.

Written and/or oral exams (assessment of theoretic and/or applied subject contents)
Theoretical content exams consisting of two assessment tests with a weight of 30% each. It is necessary to obtain a minimum grade of 4 in each of them. If the minimum grade is not reached in any of the tests, the calculation of the final grade will be the average grade or 4 if the average grade is greater than 4.
60 %
Written and/or oral exams (laboratory practice assessment)
Laboratory practice exams. Only evaluation activity will be carried out with a weight of 20%. It is necessary to obtain a minimum grade of 3. If the minimum grade is not reached in any of the tests, the calculation of the final grade will be the average grade or 4 if the average grade is greater than 4.

Delivery of exercises and / or practices
Problems and exercises proposed in the virtual classroom by the teacher to solve in class or at home. Deliverables of laboratory practices. They assess the evolution of learning.

The assessment system for the course ¿Fundamentals of Telematics¿ does not include midterm examinations. The assessment of theoretical content will be carried out by means of a single compulsory comprehensive exam, weighted at 60% of the final course grade. This exam will cover the content taught in the theory classes throughout the semester and will take place on the date established for this assessment activity. In order for this exam to be averaged with the remaining assessment activities, students must obtain a minimum mark of 4 out of 10.
20% of the course grade will be assessed by means of a laboratory exam, in which students will be required to answer questions related to the content covered in the laboratory sessions. In order for this activity to be averaged with the remaining assessment activities, students must obtain a minimum mark of 3 out of 10.
The remaining 20% of the course grade will be assessed through exercise submissions and laboratory practical assignments. There will be two exercise submissions proposed in the theory classes, each weighted at 5% of the final course grade. In order to be assessed, these submissions must be handed in within the deadlines published on the virtual learning platform. Likewise, students must submit the solutions to the exercises corresponding to the laboratory practical sessions within the established deadlines. These laboratory practical submissions will have a combined weighting of 10% of the final course grade.
Attendance at laboratory classes is compulsory for the laboratory practical submissions to be assessed. Failure to attend a laboratory session will result in a mark of 0 for the submissions corresponding to the practical work carried out in that session.
In any case, in order to pass the course, students must obtain a final grade equal to or higher than 5 out of 10, calculated from the marks obtained in each assessment activity according to the corresponding weighting. If any of the established minimum marks is not met, the final grade will be the weighted average of the different components, up to a maximum of 4 points.
Students in their second or subsequent enrolment who have previously taken the course in Spanish and choose to enrol in the English-taught intensification pathway must complete and pass again all teaching activities carried out in English in order for this pathway to be recognised.
Students who have passed an assessment activity under the continuous assessment system and wish to take that same activity under the final assessment system waive the mark obtained for that activity under the continuous assessment system.
