Grades for TSBB15

This is a summary of the requirements for passing the course and for getting higher grades.

To pass the course

In order to pass the course, you are required to:

• Participate in a project group that presents results in both projects that meet the stipulated requirements of each project. Each group either passes or fails on a specific project. In order for an individual student to pass if the group fails it is necessary to provide documentation about the individual work that clearly demonstrates to what extent it has met the requirements. Completions can be made to project results, but only if they are minor and if the course examiner decides so.
• Complete all 4 computer exercises with a pass.
• Pass the written examination at the end of the course. This can be done by first passing the mid-term examination and then completing the missing parts at the end-of-course exam.

If these requirements are met, the student is awarded at least grade 3 in the 4-leveled LiU grading system.

Course grade

If the course is passed (see previous section) the student will also be given a grade. The grade is determined by the written examination. Previous years (before 2020) the projects were also graded, but this is no longer the case.

ECTS grades

The course gives a primary grade in the standard 4-leveled LiU grading system: fail, 3, 4, or 5. If a student wants an ECTS grade, the primary grade is translated to an ECTS grade according to the standard procedure described in document Dnr LiU-2008/00639 which can be found here (only in Swedish…).
