COURSE POLICIES Students enrolled in this course are expected to observe the following rules:
1. Per University policy, excused/unexcused absences should not exceed 20% of the assigned number of hours for a 3-
unit course (54 hours in this subject) equivalent to about 11 hours of lecture sessions. More than 20% absences
incurred during the semester would mean being dropped from the class roll.
2. Class participation is expected and will form a part of the final grade. (Students are expected to come to all classes
and be on time. Roll will be checked each class meeting. Classes missed for legitimate reasons, such as illness,
temporary duty, are excusable; however, the student must make up for the missed work by completing class exercise
sheets and attending alternate activities.)
3. Students are required to read all assigned material prior to class and be prepared to discuss them and apply them to

problem solving situations presented in class.
4. In this course you are encouraged to discuss problems with your peers and to seek help from others in understanding
the topic. Material submitted for grading should be the synthesis of your own ideas and the input (lectures) you have
received. Instances discovered of UNFAIR ADVANTAGE being taken of any other individual or group will result in a loss
of grade substance.
5. Plagiarism: All academic work submitted by students, written or otherwise, is expected to be the result of their own
independent thought and research. In cases where students submit work professing to be their own, but uses the
ideas, organization, wording or anything else from another source without the appropriate acknowledgment, then the
student(s) is/are guilty of plagiarism. Students may discuss assignments among themselves or with a professor or
tutor, but the actual work/report/result to be submitted should be done completely solely by the student. In cases
where a student's report or assignment involves research in outside sources or information, the student must
carefully acknowledge exactly what, where and how he/she has utilized the sources or information.
6. Cheating during examinations is a big no-no! Students caught cheating in any form will have their papers confiscated
and will be sent out of the examination room and not allowed to retake the exam anymore.
7. Make up policy: Students who are unavoidably absent from an examination (long exams or major exams) or recitation
must submit an excuse letter duly signed by any of his/her parents before he/she can take the missed examination. If
the cause of the absence is illness, then the student must present a medical certificate. Quizzes and exercises missed
because of valid absences will be prorated.
8. All requirements should be submitted on or before the agreed upon due dates.
