| S-INFO-018 | Oral examination with lecture notes available : 33% Project : 67% (33% for the written report, 33% for the oral presentation) Both parts must be passed successfully, otherwise the lowest grade is the overall grade (The examination can take place in English for foreign students, if requested) According to the Studies Rules and Regulations (Art. 37: "Tout étudiant est tenu de suivre régulièrement les activités d'apprentissage du programme auquel il s'est inscrit, sauf s'il en est dispensé"), regular class attendance (at least 60%) is a condition for being admitted to the exam. In the event of proven plagiarism with aggravating circumstances of erroneous bibliographic referencing for the relevant part of the work, the grade for the teaching unit (i.e. educational component, EU) will be zero points out of twenty (0/20) and the case file will be forwarded to the deliberation jury to rule on the merits of further sanctions. |
