Assessment System

% end-of-term-examination 45
% of continuous assessment (assigments, laboratory, practicals...) 55

Calendar of Continuous assessment

The assessment system includes both and end-of-term examination and the continuous assessment of the student work.
The grade will be weighted as: 55% continuous assessment - 45% end-of-term-exam.
The continuous assessment includes a midterm and a project, the latter to be carried out in groups.
The final written-exam will globally evaluate the acquired knowledge, skills and abilities.
To pass the course it is mandatory to get minimum grade in the examination papers.
