XVII. Course Policies and Standards:

Homework/Assignments: Homework problems are assigned in the schedule. Homework is due to start of class, on the date
shown in the schedule. Late homework will not be accepted. Any changes to the schedule will be
announced in class.

Problems are to be solved: one per page, front side only, and final answer clearly identified.
Disorganised or incomplete work will not be graded, or it may earn reduced grade. You must show
all of your work, and not just the final answer.

Students should never copy from another source, nor allow their work to be copied.

Exams: Exams dates are to be announce later. Any changes to the schedule will be announced in class. If
a student must miss an exam for good reason (e.g., sickness, family emergency) they must
contact the instructor prior to the exam date. There will be no make-up exams, except for
documented sickness or family emergencies.

Final Answer: When solving problems, students are encouraged to be neat, well-organized and logical. The
correct final answer is important. The students are encouraged to check their work.

Partial Credit & Review of
Exams Grades:
If a student believes they deserve more partial credit for an exam problem, they are encouraged to
visit the instructor during the office hours and present a case for revising the grade. Students are
asked to mark-up their exams using a pen, assuming a pencil was used in the exam. Do not add
marks with pencil. Do not erase marks from the exam. Students should clearly show what was
correct on the exam and explain the approach taken on the exam to help instructor fairly grade the
exam. The instructor must read the work shown on the exam that was performed during the exam
time period. It will not help, if the students says “Now I Know how to solve the problem”. This is
not an opportunity to earn extra credit by doing additional work. This is an opportunity to ensure
the exam is graded fairly.

Students are encouraged to present their best explanation of what they did during the exam, in
order to earn the highest grade possible, yet they are expected to accept the instructor’s decision.
Begin and end with a positive attitude.

All reviews of an exam grade must be concluded no sooner than 24 hours after the exam is returned
to the student, and no later than two weeks after the exam is returned to the class.

Class Conduct: Students are expected to assist in maintaining a classroom environment that is conducive to
learning for all students in the class. Please do not come late to class. Please do not leave early. If

you must leave early, please inform the instructor before the class starts and sit in the back of the
class to minimize the disruption. Please do not use cell phone, messaging, or games in class. If a
laptop is open, it needs to be used for this class and never used to check email, play games, or
search the internet.

Calculators for Exams: Basic engineering/scientific calculators can be used on exams. Mini-laptop and calculators with
communication capabilities; cannot be used on exams.

Scholastic Dishonesty: The university expects each student to maintain a high standard of individual integrity.
Scholastic dishonesty is a serious offense that includes, but it is not limited to, cheating on a test,
plagiarism, or collusion.

Withdrawing from a Please make yourself aware of dates and policies about withdrawing from a course or
Course: withdrawing from the University. If you fall behind, don’t just give-up and quit attending.
Contact the College of Engineering Advising Office and explore your options. If you drop a
course, double-check to make sure it is done properly.
