Referring to knowledge

This subject is taught through two main types of activity, following the teaching model adopted by the Faculty of Economics and Business.

a) In-class activities which combine theoretical explanations with practical components. These sessions are devoted to presenting key theoretical concepts and analytical tools, solving problems, and carrying out active-learning activities.

b) Independent study, which involves reviewing class notes, reading complementary materials, completing exercises, and preparing for continuous assessment tests and the final examination.

The main method of evaluation for this subject is continuous assessment.

Specific details regarding the organization of continuous assessment—including the number and type of tests, exams and other activities, the grading criteria, and the format of the questions— are published in the course outline on the Virtual Campus at the start of the semester. Students failing to submit one or more of the continuous assessment activities are automatically transferred to the single assessment system and must sit a final examination.

Students who do not obtain a pass grade are entitled to a repeat assessment, scheduled by the Academic Council. This takes the same format as the single assessment examination.

Examination-based assessment

The single assessment consists of a final examination worth 100% of the overall grade. The detailed format and requirements for this examination are published on the Virtual Campus at the beginning of the academic year.

Students who do not obtain a pass grade are entitled to a repeat assessment, set by the Academic Council, which follows the same format as the single assessment examination.
