Examination details

Grading scale: UV - (U,G,VG) - (Fail, Pass, Pass with Distinction)
Assessment: Computer-based examination. The students should produce a digital assembly of a physical product consisting of several parts. For a passing grade it is required that the assembly and included parts are modelled. For pass with distinction it is required that the models follow the guide-lines for efficient modelling.

The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
