Assessment methods and criteria

Oral examination: testing knowledge, comprehension and integration of different parts of the curse. The evaluation may include a personal project performed by the student. The subject will be proposed by the student or chosen among a list of suggestions. This project will aim at integrating in a transversal way the lessons learned in several lectures of the "Physiologie-Developmental Biology" and contribute to a common evaluation. The notes obtained for the presentation of this project will represent one third of the total figure.

Work placement(s)

Organizational remarks

The Powerpoint presentations used for the lecture will be available in advance.
