Grading scale: TH - (U,3,4,5) - (Fail, Three, Four, Five)
Assessment: The examination takes place in writing in the form of examination and a to this hearing oral test at the end of the course. Oral examination is given only for those students who passed the written examination. Examination is also in the form of written project work and laboratory sessions during the course.
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.
