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"), 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 recommendations 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.

Final Assignment
Deliverable of a report of the work carried out on the contents of UNIT I. This deliverable will be evaluated at the end of UNIT I and the delivery date will be indicated in the Virtual Classroom.
10 %
Written and/or oral exams (assessment of theoretic and applied content and/or laboratory practice)
The exams carried out will weigh 40% on the final grade. There will be a partial exam for UNIT I with a weight of 15% and a partial exam for UNITS II-IV with a weight of 25%.
40 %
Delivery of exercises and / or practices
The laboratory sessions will have a weight of 50% in the final grade. They will be evaluated by means of the reports of the practices carried out (45%) and with the presentation of the results and procedures used for the programming practices with the GPIB bus and the SCPI standard (5%). The laboratory reports will be delivered at the end of the laboratory classes and the delivery date will be indicated in the virtual classroom.
50 %
Presentation of assignments in class
The presentation of the practical work carried out in the laboratory will be weighted with 5% of the final grade.
5 %
Final Assignment
Deliverable of a memory of the work done.
10 %
Practical laboratory assignment

45 %
Written and/or oral exams (assessment of theoretic and applied content and/or laboratory practice)
The exams carried out will have a weight on the final grade of 40%
40 %
There will be two partial exams. The first midterm exam will be related to UNIT I and will have a weight of 15% of the final grade. The second partial will evaluate blocks II to IV and will have a weight of 25% in the final grade. The contents and evaluation procedures will be conveniently published in the respective calls. In the final exam, both partials will also be considered for evaluation independently. It will not be necessary to attend all the practical classes to pass the subject, although the delivery of the report of the practicals carried out and its presentation in class will be assessed. Therefore, it is highly recommended to attend laboratory sessions. It will not be necessary to obtain any minimum grade in any of the previous activities to be able to pass the course. It will be necessary to obtain a score higher than 50% out of 100% in the final grade for the course in order to pass it. Said final score will be calculated by adding the marks obtained in the three evaluation activities: - Deliverable of a report of the work carried out on the contents of block I (10%) - Exams performed (40%) - Laboratory sessions (50%) Additional marks may be offered on questions and / or optional activities carried out in or out of class. Those optional activities may be carried out by all students and may be taken into account to raise the final grade. In the event that a student who has passed an assessment activity in the continuous assessment system wishes to take that same activity in the final assessment system, they must renounce the grade obtained in the continuous assessment system.
