The grading is based on two components: 1. Obligatory Assignment; 2. Written examination.

The obligatory assignment counts 25% of the final grade. This assignment is to be carried out in groups of 2-3 students. However, in some special cases a student may be allowed to work individually. The teacher will give information regarding the deadline for handing in the assignment. Failing to hand-in the assignment within deadline will disqualify the group of the students (or the student as the case may be) to take the written examination.

The four-hour written examination at the end of the term counts 75% towards the final grade.

The final grade is based on weighted average of the obtained grades of the two components i.e. 25% for assignment + 75% for written exam. To get an overall grade, it is mandatory for the students to pass both the components i.e. assignment and written examination.

The students who wish to write the examination later, or the students who want to re-write the examination are not required to do the assignment afresh. Their obtained grade of the assignment shall count towards their final grade.

Letter grading A-F.
