Type of evaluation

The evaluation of the student for the modules 1,2 and 3 occurs together, during the same oral examination, which consists of both the discussion of theoretic subjects included in the programme and the identification of animal species from conserved material and slides. The evalutation considers both the knowledge of the contents and the exposition capacity.
