Evaluation factors expressed in the worksheets for each step will ailso be taken into consideration. At the end of each stage there is an individual assessment consisting on public exhibition of the student work followed up by technical discussion. Grading will range from 0-20. At the end of the year the student must deliver the work of the last phase and that of all previous phases.
Failure to present all the work implies the failing grades points. Attendance in evaluation sessions is mandatory and essential. There is no recourse. In order to be elegible to a assessment the student must ensure attendance of at least 75% of the classes provided.

Situations related to Fraud are briefly addressed in a single article, in the General Regulations for the Assessment of First Cycle Students, Integrated Master's and Second Cycle Study Cycles of the University of Porto, Order n. 1535/2018, of February 13th.
“Article 20
FRAUD
Fraud committed in carrying out a work, in any of its modalities, implies its annulment and communication to the statutorily competent body for possible initiation of disciplinary proceedings.”
According to the above-mentioned article, it will be understood as fraud, and will not be considered for evaluation, any and all work carried out by means or methods different from those provided for in the worksheets or carried out by means or methods different from those indicated by the Curricular Unit teachers.
Repeated action in carrying out work through fraudulent methods will imply the application of the Article with regard to “communication to the statutorily competent body for possible initiation of disciplinary proceedings.”
At the end of each phase, the evaluation will be the result of the development of students' responses compared to the reference parameters outlined in worksheets.
