Final Project Work is a compulsory part of 12 ECTS, framed in the Degree in Nursing to be held at the 4 th year of the Degree and will be presented and evaluated during the performance of 4 th grade year. As stated in the Order CIN 2134/2008 of 3 July, Labor Final Grade (TFG) is a transverse field whose work will be done associated with different materials.


The TFG is essentially an autonomous work that every student be under the guidance of a tutor, who will act as a catalyst and facilitator of the learning process. The TFG has to show an integrated manner, the acquisition of skills and training content received at the bachelor's degree in nursing.


Training activities related mainly to the independent work of student, group tutoring, cooperative learning, tutoring and learning. The following figure shows the distribution by number of hours (see at moodle web).

 With the TFG aims to promote reflective and critical thinking to apply and integrate knowledge acquired in practice. The GFR will be original and specific and may take different formats, whether professional, technical and / or scientific-empirical and power that integrates nursing knowledge acquired over the degree of nursing and ensuring the acquisition and assessment of competences Grade.


Matter Final Project, must enable the knowledge and skills acquired by students in the area of knowledge of the degree, taking into account the multidisciplinary nature of it. The assessment of GFR will be used to assess the student's ability to develop nursing knowledge necessary to enable it to understand, interpret, analyze and explain scientific or clinical aspects of a professional field of nursing, nurses using different skills.

El Trabajo Fin de Grado (TFG), se evaluará a partir de la presentación y defensa del mismo ante un tribunal y su evaluación se realizará siguiendo el sistema de calificaciones en las titulaciones universitarias de carácter oficial y validez en todo el territorio nacional como figura en el Real decreto 1125/2003, de 5 de septiembre (BOE núm. 224, 18 de septiembre de 2003). 

El tribunal evaluador estará constituído por el tutor del TFG, así como otros profesores del departamento de enfermería, de otros departamentos expertos en el ámbito de estudio, y profesionales asistenciales de centros de prácticas.

El tribunal, una vez terminada la deliberación procederá a:

• Aceptar o rechazar el trabajo presentado, por mayoría simple. Si se produjera empate, el voto del presidente, se considerará de calidad
• Calificar el trabajo realizado con la nota media obtenida de las calificaciones emitidas por los miembros del tribunal
• Cumplimentar las Actas de Valoración, la cual, habrá de ser suscrita por todos los miembros del tribunal.
• Anunciar en sesión pública la calificación
• En el caso de que el TFG sea rechazado, el tribunal procederá a la elaboración de un informe en el que se hará constar aquellos errores, omisiones y deficiencias que deban ser subsanados y que motivaron la no aceptación del mismo.

Para la evaluación se tendrán en cuenta los siguientes criterios:

1. Evaluación del proceso tutorial (será el tutor conjuntamente con el alumno que evaluarán el proceso de aprendizaje y ejecución del TFG). Se tendrán en cuenta si los objetivos planificados para cada tutoría se han alcanzado.
2. Evaluación del Tribunal evaluador: El tribunal estará compuesto por profesores de la asignatura TFG; también podrán formar parte del tribunal profesionales de la enfermería de centros colaboradores.

Se evaluará el Trabajo escrito, la defensa oral, el proceso tutorial, y la evaluación entre iguales. Asimismo formará parte de la evaluación una autoevaluación por parte del alumno.  Ver cuadro de la página 9.

Para poder aplicar los porcentajes el TFG debe haber obtenido una nota igual o superior a 4.5 en cada una de las partes a evaluar (Proceso tutorial / Defensa oral / Trabajo escrito).

1. En caso de suspender el TFG en 1ª convocatoria, se podrá optar a 2ª Convocatoria siempre y cuando el alumno haya asistido al 80% de las tutorías durante el curso
2. Si se suspende el TFG en 2ª Convocatoria, deberá matricularse de nuevo la asignatura TFG.
3. La asignatura TFG se aprueba con un mínimo de 5 sobre 10 puntos.
4. El tutor del TFG podrá decidir no presentar un TFG si considera que no cumple los mínimos necesarios para ser defendido públicamente.
5. Todo lo anteriormente citado configurará el 90% de la nota de la asignatura TFG. El 10% restante corresponderá a la asistencia a los seminarios obligatorios, ejercicios marcados por los profesores de seminarios, presentación de casos y participación activa en los seminarios.

Para su evaluación se tendrán en cuenta los siguientes criterios:

• Entidad del problema tratado (grado de dificultad o complejidad del caso clínico)
• Originalidad del caso presentado
• Grado de cumplimiento de los objetivos
• Fuentes bibliográficas consultadas
• Calidad en la elaboración del documento escrito
• Calidad en la defensa oral
• Estimación de la dedicación del alumno
• Informes del proceso de aprendizaje a lo largo de la realización del trabajo

La evaluación se llevará a cabo bajo rúbricas evaluativas que homogeneizarán los criterios evaluativos.

La calificación podrá ser numéricamente de 1 a 10 con expresión decimal, a la que podrá añadirse su correspondiente calificación cualitativa de Suspenso, Aprobado, Notable, Sobresaliente y Matrícula de Honor.

La mención de “Matrícula de Honor” (MH) podrá ser otorgada a trabajos que hayan obtenido una calificación igual o superior a 9,5. Serán trabajos excepcionales que hayan abordado un problema de gran complejidad, o con una gran originalidad en sus planteamientos, hayan ido más allá de los objetivos inicialmente propuestos, hayan sido expuesto con gran claridad y hayan sido defendidos con una argumentación clara y basada en el razonamiento lógico.

A continuación se adjunta un cuadro resumen del sistema de evaluación.
