Assesment
Assessment Method No Percentage
Midterm Exam . . . . . . . 1 . . . . . 40%
Final Exam. . . . . . . . . . . 1 . . . . . 45%
Lab Work ............... . . 7 . . . . . 15%
Policy on makeups:
For eligibility to take a makeup exam, the student should bring (submit) a doctor's report within 3 working days of the missed exam. You will have only one make-up for midterm or final exams only. Make-up will be organized after final exam period and will cover all the materials covered during the semester.
Attendance to lectures:
Attendance will be taken in every lecture but will not be graded.
Attendance to labs: There is no makeup for labs. For a missed lab session, lab grade for that session will be taken as zero. If a student does not attend more than two lab sessions, his/her overall lab grade will be taken as zero.
Policy on cheating and plagiarism:
Any student caught cheating in exams or in any other graded course work will automatically fail from the course and may be sent to the disciplinary committee at the discretion of the instructor.
Policy on NG grades: NG grade will be given in case of Missing Midterm and Final without official excuse.
Contribution of course to ABET criterion 5
Credit Hours for:
Mathematics & Basic Science : 0 Engineering Sciences and Design : 4 General Education : 0
Relationship of the course to program outcomes
The course has been designed to contribute to the following program outcomes:
- 1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics
- 6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions
