Assessment |

Assessment of examinations and coursework is in accordance with University regulations (see University Calendar Section IV).
When students repeat modules externally, it may be impractical for them to undertake the normal assessment activities, for example assessed laboratory or group work. In such cases where external repeat is permitted they will be provided with an alternative but equivalent form of assessment which will meet the required learning outcomes. |

The industrial placements are assessed on a pass/fail basis by the Industrial Liaison Tutor on recommendations from the student’s Personal Tutor and the industrial mentor. Students who fail a work placement will either be required to undertake a new work placement or exit with the award of BEng. |

These regulations may be revised during the student's period of registration in accordance with the procedures approved by Senate.
