Study plan

Examination form

Examination is based on passed laboratory work and design work incl. report, written exam and sustainable essay. The written exam consists of three parts (Quizzes) which all shall be passed individually. Each part of the exam gives maximum 6 points (18 in total) and at least 3 points are need for each part to pass the exam. To pass the Design exercise gives maximum 6 points and at least 3 points is needed to pass the exercise. The sustainable essay gives maximum 14 points and at least 8 points needed to pass on the report part.

For grade 4 requires more than or equal to 30 but less than 34 total points and for grade 5 more than and equal to 34 points as long as all other requirements are fulfilled.

Points from each quiz will only be valid for one year, until the course again starts in study year 2023/2024 then you will have to retake all the quizzes.
