Eligibility for exams

The access to a positive rating requires the Students to attend at least 75% of the number of classes.

Calculation formula of final grade

The evaluation includes a lecture module (class attendance + presentation / discussion / preparation of reading worksheets of scientific papers + field work + game analysis / scouting) and an autonomous working module consisting on a presentation and an argumentative defence (prior presentation of a work project to be developed) of a project focused on high performance sport activity in basketball (i.e. to design a sports preparation model in high-level Basketball).

The access to positive evaluation in both module requires that students are present in at least 75% of the number of all classes. In both modules, students can not score below 9.5 values.

The final grade results from 80% of autonomous work module and 20% of classroom / lecture module.

Classification improvement

In order to improve the final classification, students who had a positive evaluation in the classroom / lecture module, may request an oral defence of the self-study submitted previously, to a jury selected for that purpose by the professor responsible for the discipline.
