Examination and completion
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Grading scale
Examination
- INL1 - Assignment, 2.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- LAB1 - Practicals, 1.5 credits, grading scale: P, F
- PRO1 - Project Assignment, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- TEN2 - Written exam, 2.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Students who have not passed written assignment (ÖVN1) according to previous official course syllabuses are assessed on INL1 in current official course syllabus.
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination
