DAFE2200 Software Engineering Course description

The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can sit the exam:

• Three compulsory group assignments. They make up three deliveries that build on each other and that must be approved in order to pass the course.

No requirements over and above the admission requirements.

Exam form: Portfolio assessment. The portfolio shall consist of a total of four parts:

• A group report (normally 3-5 students) of 15-20 pages describing the development process and showing theoretical and practical skills.
• The three compulsory submissions will also be processed and included in the folder.

One overall grade is given for the portfolio.

The exam result can be appealed.

In the event of resit and rescheduled exams, another exam form may also be used or a new assignment given with a new deadline. If oral exams are used, the result cannot be appealed.

Grade scale A-F.

Two internal examiners. External examiners are used regularly.

Emnet er ekvivalent (overlapper 10 studiepoeng) med: LO152D.

Ved praktisering av 3-gangers regelen for oppmelding til eksamen teller forsøk brukt i ekvivalente emner.

Individual written exam, 3 hours.

The exam result can be appealed.

None.

Grade scale A-F.

One internal examiner. External examiners are used regularly.
