The students must expect to work more than the scheduled hours to complete the exercises to satisfaction. Assistant lecturers/student assistants may not be present during all the scheduled periods.

Assessment methods The grades are based on written exams, project works, compulsory exercises and/or oral examinations. The assessments or evaluations may show the grade pass or fail, or marks from A to F, where A is the top grade, the lowest pass grade is E. For more information, please refer to the course descriptions and the current exam regulations. During the last semester the students undertake a research project. Most of these final projects are carried out in co-operation with local industry and businesses. The students present their results in a written report and give a presentation to an audience of academic staff and fellow students.

Requirements for continuing in the study programme The student must have passed at least 120 credits in the bachelor programme to start the research project.
