Assessment Methods

Continuous assessment (30 %).

Final written examination (70 %).

Hysys course have to be approved before final examination

In order to achieve a passing grade for the course a total assessment will be made of the student's continuous asssesment and final examination. This assessment must satisfy minimum requirements represented by the grade , and in addition the final written examination must have the grade E or higher.
