General Instructions

  • Download USE THE ASSIGNMENT TEMPLATE!
  • Please read the assignment carefully – all sub-questions must be answered in order to pass the assignment.
  • Each assignment contains 10 "points" in order to give you a hint on what we look at for the grading. The points are summarised to give the assignment a “passed with distinction”, “passed” or “failed” (see each assignment for clarification). The grading is then based on the credits for "passed" etc as described below.

  • When a grade is reported, you cannot higher your grades by redoing assignments. Only students that fail an assignment are allowed to submit a complementary assignment in order to pass this specific assignment. The complementary assignment can lead to only “Pass”. The deadline for the submission of the complementary assignment will be communicated to the students by the teachers. It is usually one week after the grades for the assignments are posted.

  • The deadlines for deliverance of assignments are outlined in the timetable of the course. After these deadlines only complementary additions of assignments are accepted. Grades are reported on the 28th of March. Complementary additions of assignments delivered after this date do not count in the grading if they do not achieve a student to pass the course.
