Grading Policy

ü       Same scale for graduate and undergraduate students

ü       Absolute and relative scale:

Ø      When the average is lower than 65/100: 25% A, 40%B, 25% C, 10% D/F

Ø      When the average is over 65/100: 35% A, 40% B, 20% C, 5% D/F

Ø      When the average is over 75/100: 40% A, 40% B, 20% C

Ø      The final grade distribution will be adjusted based on the average and standard deviation. 

ü       2 mid-terms each accounting for 25% of the grade (25% ´ 2 = 50%)

ü       Design Project accounts for 40% of the grade

ü       Homework assignments and Quiz account for 10%

ü       Late projects or assignments will NOT be accepted

Ø      You may request extension for homework assignment or make-up exam for documented emergencies (e.g. hospitalization, death of family member, etc.) It has to be requested only BEFORE its due date.

ü       Any form of cheating will be reported to the Dean of students AND result in a failing grade

ü       Must fulfill ABET requirements to get a passing grade
