In this subject, the student must elaborate the TFG on an individual basis. It should be demonstrated the knowledge and skills acquired throughout the degree. The work has to be original and in its development can predominate the theoretical character or the practical character. In the case of basically theoretical TFG, a review of the bibliography of the subject should be carried out, giving as far as possible an additional review of research works related to the subject that will be associated with some field of the degree. If the TFG is practical, a case or project should be solved in which the theoretical techniques learned in the degree are applied. As regards the formalization of the TFG, it can follow the following typology (non-exclusive options)
1. More academic TFG in which the student, under the tutelage of a director, develops a work that can pose for example the analysis of the state of the art in a certain area of ¿¿study, a preliminary empirical work or a feasibility study .
2. More applied TFG. This type of TFG, by its nature, may be linked, but not necessarily, to external practices. In this case the student will also have a director of UPNA.

In the individual tutorials the director will be the one that advises and orient the student on how to elaborate the TFG. The steering function must follow a process in which the student is the active part.
In a first stage - once assigned the subject to perform -, the student must show the approach that will give the work and the process that will follow to achieve the objectives that are proposed. The director, based on what the student says, will guide the student indicating the steps to follow.
In the next stage, the student will collect the necessary information (data, scientific or technical content, projects, case studies and all necessary bibliography) and evaluate the information.
As a result of all this work, the student will proceed to the writing of the memory of the TFG in which it will be shown what has been realized, with the established structure for it.
Finally, the TFG will be presented and defended in accordance with the TFG regulations established by the FCCEE.
Evaluation
The assessment of the TFG shall be made in accordance with the regulations established for this purpose by the FCCEE.
Bibliography
Access the bibliography that your professor has requested from the Library.
Each TFG will use the relevant literature relating to the proposed topic. The implementation of the TFG will be carried out according to the regulation established by the UPNA at a general level (UPNA Regulation on TFG approved by Governing Council on March 12, 2013) and in particular by the FCCEE (TFG Procedure of the FCCEE).
