DEPARTMENT POLICY
No change in the planning of the lab classes is allowed.
The absences to the practical classes are motivated in maximum 2 weeks from their respective date (the health certificate is issued by the Dean's Office). The certificate is submitted to the group assistant in a copy together with the original.
The group assistant is allowed to expel students that have other preoccupations than the lab class content. In these cases the student can't recuperate that lab with a medical certificate.
The absences can be recuperated only after the health certificate or the bill showing the payment of the classes left is submitted in term of 2 weeks from the date of the absences.
3-Oct-16 36
DEPARTMENT POLICY
The lab classes are recuperated in the planned framework provided by the group assistant. No permission is given to recuperate classes with other teaching staff.
Students that have absences at more than 20% of the total number of lab hours will have to recuperate the entire module, in the current academic year, or in the following academic years.
The theoretical and practical exams defended in the same academic year are acknowledged. The students, who pass only one part of the exams, are not obliged to take the exam once again.
The students who have difference exams should plan the exam with the teacher and also pay the university fee for the exam.
