Specific skills
CES1.g. Area of competence: instrumental knowledge, skills and abilities. Manage, write and run reports and projects in biology.
CES2.h. Area of competence: instrumental knowledge, skills and abilities. Basis of law, economics and management.
Transversal skills
CT1. Capacity for analysis and synthesis.
CT2. Capacity for reasoning and argumentation.
CT3. Ability to work in problem situations include group and collectively.
CT4. Ability to obtain adequate, diverse and updated information.

Quarterly matter, with 26 hours of lectures on four hours per week. The seminars are held in groups of 30 students, with application of methodologies and techniques to specific cases. 5 sessions of seminars (2 hours each) are made. Students must submit a final report of each seminar in groups of three / four people established by the teacher. In addition the results in several seminars will be presented to other colleagues.
5 group tutorials for the exhibition of works, raising questions and discussion will take place.
The expository and interactive teaching will be face-to-face. The tutorials may be partially carried out virtually.
The institutional platform to be used will be Teams and Moodle, alternating synchronous and asynchronous communication.
Using the platform of the virtual USC will streamline the information flow bidirectionally between student and teacher, agility printing the teaching of the subject, and facilitating access to documentation by the student.
Students will be certified through continuous assessment, combined with final tests. The activities to be evaluated are:
Attendance and participation in master classes: 10%. It's not mandatory
Attendance and participation in seminars: 10%. It's not mandatory
Group work: 30%. It is not mandatory, but only the work of the students who attend the seminars will be collected. However, those students who have not been able to attend the seminars may request to take a specific test to assess the skills to be acquired with these group assignments.
Exam: 50%. Mandatory. Those students who do not obtain a 4 (out of 10) in the exam will not pass the course. The exam will be face-to-face, as a complementary test in the continuous assessment.
For cases of fraudulent completion of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for the evaluation of the academic performance of students and the review of grades will be applied.
These criteria are valid for the 1st and 2nd opportunity call and grades will be maintained only during the academic year. Students with an attendance exemption, attendance grades will be assigned to the exam, which will be worth 70%.
The verification of the specific competences will be carried out both through the questions formulated in the exam, as well as in the practical work to be delivered by the students.
The acquisition of all transversal competences will be verified through the work resulting from the seminars, analyzing their content and presentation and defense. The CT1, CT2 and CT8 competencies will also be assessed through the written exam.

• Attendance at all teaching activities.
• Consultation of the recommended bibliography.
• Make frequent use of tutorials for any matter relating to the matter.
These recommendations are applicable in all the considered scenarios.
Contingency plan.
In the case of being in scenarios 2 or 3, the following actions are considered:
2.- Teaching methodology
Scenario 2
The expository teaching will be carried out virtually with the use of microsoft teams and the Moodle application. Interactive teaching combines physical presence with telematics, depending on the student's availability to access the computer applications that will be used in the subject. Synchronous and asynchronous communication will alternate.
Scenario 3
Both expository and interactive teaching (seminars, tutorials) will be developed in a totally virtual way, with the use of Microsoft Teams and moodle. Synchronous and asynchronous communication will alternate.
3.- Evaluation
The criteria described above will be maintained, but the 20% reserved for scoring attendance at the expository and interactive classes will be transferred to group work, so the exam will be 50%. The exam will be carried out electronically and will be a complementary test to the continuous assessment.
For cases of fraudulent completion of exercises or tests, the provisions of the Regulations for the evaluation of the academic performance of students and the review of grades will be applied.e continuous evaluation
