Calculation formula of final grade

The internship will be evaluated according to the following directives:

Autonomy with which the work was done
(Information to be provided by the external supervisor)

• Low - difficult to progress autonomously; 
• Average - some autonomy but with blocking situations that required the intervention of the advisor; 
• High - very good ability to solve problems independently eat intervention advisor focused on defining the next steps of the work.

Satisfaction of objectives
(Assessed by the report and the external supervisor's information )

• Low - reached to the minimum objectives admissible for the proposed work;
• Average - the objectives were reached  though not entirely;
• High - reached up fully, or even exceeded up, the objectives set. 

Intrinsic difficulty level of their work
(Assessed by the report and presentation/discussion)  

• Low - relatively easy work, both from a scientific or technical point of view, based on widespread knowledge;
• Average - work with some high complexity of details requiring more advanced knowledge/expertise, either technical or scientific;
• High -  relatively complex work, requiring a substantial knowledge and technical skills, or resulting in some innovative contribution.
