| Oral evaluation during teaching period | 40 % |
|
| Transfer of partial marks within the academic year | ✔ |

|
|
|
|
|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | 1) participation in the journal club, seminar presentation and abstract submission is compulsory.
2) The evaluation consists of multiple parts. For all parts of the evaluation, at least a score of 8/20 must be obtained in order to pass for the course. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | A student who achieves a score lower than 8/20 on one (or more) parts of the evaluation will receive 'F fail' as final result. This final result is not tolerable. A student who scores at least 8/20 for all parts of the evaluation receives a final score taking into account the weighing of the different parts. This final score is tolerable.
The partial grade for the oral evaluation during the teaching period (40%) remains valid within the same academic year. If the course is not passed, the course coordinator will decide whether this partial grade can be retained in the following academic year or if the entire course must be retaken. |
