This is the course plan for the second semester of the academic year 2023/2024. To check whether the course is being run this semester, go to the Virtual Campus section More UOC / The University / Programmes of study section on Campus. Once teaching starts, you'll be able to find it in the classroom. The course plan may be subject to change.

The master's studies conclude with the preparation of a Final Master's Project (TFM). The subject has 18 ECTS. It involves a dedication by the student of 450 hours.

 

This work is carried out under the supervision of a teacher, who acts as the supervisor (director) of the TFM. There are different thematic areas of TFM. After having enrolled the TFM, the student must select one and contact with the teacher who will supervise the work.

 

The final result of the final work, which the student must submit in the evaluation section of the virtual classroom, consists of three elements: 

  • A memory, which explain the work done.
  • A product will vary according to the type of work (application, design, research, study, ...)
  • A presentation (video), which summarizes the results obtained and the development of the work

 

The defense of the TFMs will be able to carry out of synchronous way in the frame of the virtual classroom. Your professor will inform in the classroom of the format planned to carry out your defense

As a Final Master's Project, the TFM is a subject that is intended to be the last one a student takes in the master's degree. This does not mean, but, that it can be done simultaneously with some other subjects.

The necessary prior knowledge will depend on the selected subject area. It is therefore convenient before enrolling in the subject, having completed the related master's subjects.

 

As a requirement to be able to enrolle the subject, it is necessary that the 42 credits corresponding to the other subjects of the master's degree have been previously passed, or enrolled in the same course as the TFM.

The selection of TFM has to be made from the TFM lines coordinated by the UOC or the URV. To do this, you has to check the areas and TFMs availables in section 6 of the 2020/2021 student guide.

Once this has been done, you should contact with the professor referring to the area or the TFM work that interests you, and inform him about your interest in carry out the TFM in that area or specific work (depending on the case). Once the acceptance by the professor to supervise your TFM have been confirmed, and you know the area of TFM that you will do, you must fill out the following form

Finally,, once your answer has been verified in the form, we will manage your access to the TFM classroom that corresponds to you. Then, the TFM will be carried out through the classroom with the assigned supervisor.

The assessment process is based on the student's personal work and presupposes authenticity of authorship and originality of the exercises completed.

Lack of authenticity of authorship or originality of assessment tests, copying or plagiarism, the fraudulent attempt to obtain a better academic result, collusion to copy or concealing or abetting copying, use of unauthorized material or devices during assessment, inter alia, are offences that may lead to serious academic or other sanctions.

Firstly, you will fail the course (D/0) if you commit any of these offences when completing activities defined as assessable in the course plan, including the final tests. Offences considered to be misconduct include, among others, the use of unauthorized material or devices during the tests, such as social media or internet search engines, or the copying of text from external sources (internet, class notes, books, articles, other students' essays or tests, etc.) without including the corresponding reference.

And secondly, the UOC's academic regulations state that any misconduct during assessment, in addition to leading to the student failing the course, may also lead to disciplinary procedures and sanctions.

You can only pass the course if you participate in and pass the continuous assessment. Your final mark for the course will be the mark you received in the continuous assessment.
