Promoting the continuous improvement of working and study conditions of the entire university community is one the basic principles and goals of the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. Such commitment to prevention and the responsibilities arising from it concern all realms of the university: governing bodies, management team, teaching and research staff, administrative and service staff and students. The UPCT Service of Occupational Hazards (Servicio de Prevención de Riesgos Laborales de la UPCT) has published a "Risk Prevention Manual for new students" (Manual de acogida al estudiante en materia de prevención de riesgos), which may be downloaded from the e-learning platform ("Aula Virtual"), with instructions and recommendations on how to act properly, from the point of view of prevention (safety, ergonomics, etc.), when developing any type of activity at the University. You will also find recommendations on how to proceed in an emergency or if an incident occurs. Particularly when carrying out training practices in laboratories, workshops or field work, you must follow all your teacher's instructions, because he/she is the person responsible for your safety and health during practice performance. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and do not put your safety or that of your classmates at risk.

Class in conventional classroom: theory, problems, case studies, seminars, etc.
Lectures about the syllabus of the course. The number of students in class, being an elective course, is reduced, which allows an almost personalized monitoring of learning. The way in which teaching is planned, in a very interactive way with the student, through class attendance and tutorials, allows to detect possible training gaps, to evaluate the performance of students and to consolidate the most important concepts of the subject.

Class in the field or open classroom (technical visits, lectures, etc.)
Depending on the availability, visits to on-site works, or attendance to seminars and conferences

Tutorials
Students and professor meet to solve doubts about the contents of the syllabus, the practical activities and the grading.
This activity also includes the scheduled meetings to monitor the students' progress in writing the course work.

Student work: study or individual or group work
Hours devoted to study of lectures and syllabus, writing of coursework and preparing its presentation.

0
Individual assignments and/or presentations.
The course is evaluated mainly through the preparation and presentation of an individual (or small group) coursework related to the course syllabus. The topic, usually a structure, is proposed by the student (or the group) and accepted by the Professor. The depth and scope of the work depends on the number of students in the group. The most common coursework studies the historical context, the structural typology and the structural behavior of the chosen structure studied according to the concepts explained during the course.
The course work is divided into two parts. Both parts are publicly exposed before the Professor and the rest of the students of the course on the dates corresponding to the mid-term exams. They are graded individually.
The first part represents 35% of the overall grade. The second part represents 55% of the overall grade.
A minimum grade of 4 points in each part must be achieved to pass the whole course.
The coursework is written during the course and is followed by the teacher through tutorials.
The grade for the course work is normally the same for all the students of a group, although it may be different if it is demonstrated, in the teacher's opinion, that the contribution of the group members is significantly different.
This activity assesses all the Learning Outcomes.
90 %
Other evaluation activities
This activity is evaluated through scheduled tutorial meetings to monitor students' progress in writing course work.
The grade for each tutorial meeting will be 10% of the grade divided by the number of meetings. Tentatively, there will be two group meetings. To obtain this grade it is necessary to present and expose real individual/group progress in the work.
The meetings will take place during non-teaching hours.
The grade will normally be the same for all students in the same group, although it may be different if it is demonstrated, in the Professor's judgment, that the contribution of the members of the group is significantly different.
All Learning Outcomes are assessed in this activity.

Individual assignments and/or presentations.
The course is fully evaluated mainly through the preparation and presentation of an individual (or small group) coursework related to the course syllabus. The topic, usually a structure or structural type, is proposed by the student (or the group) and accepted by the Professor. The depth and scope of the work depends on the number of students in the group. The most common coursework studies the historical context, the structural typology and the structural behavior of the chosen structure studied according to the concepts explained during the course.
In this activity, the whole coursework is exposed publicly and presented to the Professor and the rest of the students of the course, on the date corresponding to the final exam. The grade corresponds to 100 % of the overall grade.
The grade for the work is normally the same for all the students of a group, although it may be different if it is demonstrated, in the teacher's opinion, that the contribution of the group members is significantly different.
This activity assesses all the Learning Outcomes.
