Learning outcomes of the subject
The student will acquire a critical scientific spirit, capacity for experimental design and scientific communication in the field of Cell and Developmental Biology.The student will acquire practical skills in the appropriate techniques to address problems of a basic or applied nature in Cell and Developmental Biology.
The student will acquire the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to carry out an innovative research project in Cell and Developmental Biology.
The student will know how to apply advanced knowledge and techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology to the study and understanding of cellular and developmental processes.
The student will acquire the self-learning skills that will make possible a continuous update in the methodological and conceptual advances in Cell and Developmental Biology.
Ordinary call: orientations and renunciation
Attendance is compulsory. Excused absences may be made up with the activity indicated by the person in charge of the session.The intervention of the student in the classes will be valued, the questions and comments made in each session will be valued. A high participation and attendance to 100% of the sessions allows to pass the course.
An unexcused attendance of less than 80% of the sessions will result in the failure of the course.
In the case of absence with a justified cause (more than 30%), an exam/test of the subject adjusted to the specific situation will be carried out.
The evaluation tests of the course will be adjusted to the characteristics of the group and will be made explicit at the beginning of the course.
This method of assessment could be changed if the guidelines of the health authorities so provide. The appropriate modifications would be announced in due course, with the necessary strategies and tools to guarantee the right of the student to be evaluated with equity and fairness.
