Introduction

Portfolio assessment subject to the following requirements:

  • A project report, of 2,000 words +/-10%, describing how the assignment has been solved, and demonstrating that the students have a fundamental grasp of the processes and the methods that have been employed.
  • A ten-minute video presentation demonstrating the learning outcomes that the students have achieved during their work with the project.

The portfolio is assessed as a whole and given a single grade, but both the project report and the video presentation must be passed in order for the portfolio to receive a grade E or higher.

For group projects, all members of the group receive the same grade. Under exceptional circumstances, individual grades can be assigned at the discretion of the project supervisor(s) and Head of Studies.

The exam result can be appealed.
