Academic Policy
Grading Policy
This course focuses on
developing the computer engineering
skills using a disciplined engineering practice; therefore, students are
required
to do quality work by themselves.
- Poorly done work
will not be accepted and must be redone.
- If a homework is not submitted, students will be penalized 10% of that homework.
- Only one late
assignment is allowed. Other
late assignments will not be graded.
- Assignments will
not be graded unless they are submitted properly.
- Each student is
required to submit his/her personal engineering journal every week.
Academic Honor Code
Working together to completing the
assignments is highly
encouraged; however, the solution should be your own. Cheating will not be tolerated.
Students are required to follow the
university’s code of conduct.
In addition,
- Penalty for the
first plagiarism offense is the double negative of that entire particular
assignment. For
instance, if the score for an assignment is 200 points, cheating will
result in -400 points. In
other word, no submission is better than plagiarism.
The second violation will lead to academic suspension.
- Four times penalty is
placed on the students who allow fellow students to copy their
assignment. Using
the above scenario, these students will be penalized 800 points.
