Special assessment requirements
The unit grade is derived from following 3 assessment components.
- Test Marks (TM) = T1+T2+T3+T4+T5+T6 (Out of 30)
- Assignment Marks (AM) = Out of 40
- Final Exam Marks (EM) = Out of 30
The Total Mark is obtained for these components using the formula:
Total Mark (TM) = T1+T2+T3+T4+T5+T6+T7+T8+AM+EM
The final grade of a student is determined from the TM according to the following table:
|
85 <= TM <= 100 AND EM >15 |
Final grade = HD |
|
75 <= TM < 85 AND EM >15 |
Final grade = DI |
|
65 <= TM < 75 AND EM >15 |
Final grade = CR |
|
50 <= TM < 65 AND EM >15 |
Final grade = P |
|
0 <= TM < 50 AND EM < 15 |
Final grade = FAIL (NX, NS, NC or NN) |
It is necessary to pass in the final exam (EM >= 15) to pass the unit.
The unit convener reserves the right to question students orally on any of their submitted work.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.
Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.
UC students have to complete the annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
