Final Written Examination. The students who are eligible for the final examination participate in a 2-hour test. In the event of failure, students are allowed to take part in the resit exam of September. In the final examination participate students who successfully have completed the lab practical. No more than three failures are allowed in lab practical work. A failure is considered: (a) no submission of work, or work marked bellow passing grade, (b) plagiarism in submitted work, (c) failure to attend the practical.
Students who fail the lab work need to re-enrol in the course the following year and repeat lab practical. Successful completion of the labs is also valid for the subsequent years in case of failure in the final examination.
The final grade of the course is calculated from the following grades: The final theoretical examination (TH), Laboratory (LAB) grade, lab exam, The grade of teamwork-project (PR).
Final course grade = TH * 0,5 + LAB * 0,2 + PR * 0,3
This formula applies only if the grade of final theoretical examination is >= 4.
