Assessment comments |
The second opportunity and the extraordinary will follow the same evaluation criteria According to regulations of Qualifications and Proceedings, the Faculty’s Commission of Quality agreed that the recommendation of the Honours will be given to the students who obtain the highest marks in the first evaluation.
