Welcome to the School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science and the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics
I would like to welcome you to the Department and to the University. This is a first and important step in developing your professional career. I hope that you will enjoy the experiences during your studies and will take full advantage of opportunities as they arise. This handbook contains all of the important information about your degree programme and the points of contact for your studies. The book describes the relationship between you and the University - including your responsibilities towards your studies and our responsibilities towards you as a student. The structure of the Department's degree programmes are given and the arrangements for the examinations. It also describes the student support services available to you and progression requirements from year to year. We in the Department hope you will be happy at Liverpool, and that make the most of your time at the University and in the City. Yours sincerely Professor Jason Ralph Head of Department

1. Purpose of the Departmental Handbook


This student handbook will act as a supplement for the main University Handbooks, which includes a lot of the important information you need to know whilst you are studying here. Please ensure that you familiarise yourself with the information and refer to the handbook regularly. Please also take a look at the Frequently Asked Questions section at the end of this handbook.

2. Information about the School


The Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics is part of the School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science and is located on Brownlow Hill. The building houses the offices for academic, administrative and technical staff. It also houses the laboratories and some of the major lecture theatres. The Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics, together with the Department of Computer Science, is part of the School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science. The interface between electrical engineering and computer science is where hardware meets software, for example in the domain of signal processing. Although computer science also has strong connections with mathematics (for example in the field of algorithms) and to an extent philosophy (for example in the fields of logic programming and the theory of computation), the relation with electrical engineering means that the two departments within the school are well matched, thus allowing students in both departments to benefit from the experience and knowhow available across the entire school. The Student Experience Team Leader for the School is Mrs Jan Harding, who can help with advice on school level procedures and signposting to central and specialised support services. She also acts as Secretary to the Board of Examiners. She is located within the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. 2.1. The Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics is well recognised nationally and internationally. The research and teaching have received high ratings in recent assessments and surveys and many of the academic staff enjoy international recognition for pre-eminence in their fields. Once students commence their studies, they become members of the prestigious community. The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) have assessed all of the BEng and MEng programmes and awarded full or interim accreditation (meeting their requirements including UK-SPEC). 2.2.

2.3.

How the Degree Programmes are Managed

The Board of Studies in Electrical Engineering and Electronics has overall responsibility for all aspects of the provision and assessment of undergraduate and taught postgraduate

programmes within the Department. The Board comprises key academic members of staff and is chaired by Director of Learning and Teaching, Dr Xu (Judy) Zhu. In addition, each of our degree programmes has a Programme Director who is responsible for the day to day running of the programme. There are three such directors within the Department: -

Dr Xin Tu (GHK6, GHKP, H673, H675, HG6L, HH66) Dr Lin Jiang (H430, H431, H432, H433, H490, H491, H492, H493, HH67, HH76, HHP7, HHR6) Dr Ivona Mitrovic (H602, H603, H604, H605, H606, H607, H610, H613, H614, H620, H621, H622, H623, H624, HZ46)

In this Department, students are taught either in lectures, tutorials, practicals or in laboratory sessions and study in each academic year will be divided into modules totalling 120 credits over two semesters. In this Department the majority of modules are worth 7.5 or 15 credits and the final year project modules are worth 30 credits. 2.4. Communication with Students

The main way the Department will communicate with students is by email, this may include informing students regarding important module information, to advise regarding cancelled lectures or attendance issues. It is therefore very important that students always ensure that they are checking their University email account regularly. The Department may also need to contact students by letter and we will use the term time or permanent address as indicated in Liverpool Life. Please ensure that the addresses all correct at all times. If you experience any problems with this, then please contact the Student Support Office (room 501, 5th floor, EEE Building or via email: Studyenq@liv.ac.uk). 2.5. School Specific Health and Safety Information

Student safety is very important to us it is one of the Universitys highest priorities. We are committed to providing you with a safe learning and living environment but we can only achieve this if we have your full support. In the same way we expect all our staff to work to high safety standards, we ask that you take health and safety seriously by: Taking reasonable care for the health and safety of yourself and others; Acting in accordance with University safety rules. Familiarise yourself with the fire procedures in buildings, including what to do if you discover a fire, what to do if the alarm sounds and where to assemble should you have to evacuate the building. The normal way into a building may not be available to you in a fire situation so ensure you know what alternative routes exist. Know the number to use in an emergency on the University telephone system this is 2222. Never wedge open fire doors or obstruct escape routes. Always report accidents, near misses or dangerous conditions to a responsible member of the Department. Always follow any health and safety instructions you are given. There is a lot more information and this can be found at: http://www.liv.ac.uk/safety/. 8

In the Department we also have specific safety arrangements, in practical/laboratory departments there is a safety code/handbook which sets out departmental safety arrangements in detail. If you have any problems or questions about safety, raise them with a member of teaching staff or with your Departmental Safety Coordinator, who is: Mr Jim Humphries Email: Humph9ke@liverpool.ac.uk Tel.: 0151 794 4596

4.2 School Learning, Teaching and Assessment Policies/Strategies/processes. The Learning and Teaching Strategy for the Department is geared to support its Aims and Mission Statement. It seeks to provide a structure and environment that is consistent with the provision of high-quality engineering degree programmes and for the development of knowledge, understanding and skills that professional engineers are expected to attain. The content of the different undergraduate engineering degree programmes is, to a large extent, prescribed by the appropriate Professional Institutions. The Institutions also expect engineering graduates to have a wide range of knowledge, understanding, skills and awareness: Graduates should know: the engineering, physical and other sciences that underpin a range of engineering disciplines the specialist subjects within the discipline of the particular degree a wide range of tools, techniques and equipment Graduates should understand: the engineering science principles relevant to the degree discipline mathematics as a means of communicating results, concepts and ideas the engineering methodology of applying engineering principles to create products, systems and services the constraints inherent in applying technology to create products, systems and services Graduates should be able to: create and innovate use mathematics to solve complex problems use laboratory and workshop to generate useful data evaluate and derive information from data to produce useful results communicate effectively use IT effectively Graduates should be aware of: management techniques and systems their responsibility for quality and safety financial, economic and social factors affecting engineering The first two years of the undergraduate programmes are intended to give a broad foundation in the basic principles of engineering. In the final year of the BEng and BSc programmes, the studies should include an in-depth treatment of a selection of subjects that is coherent and appropriate to the particular degree. Studies in the final year of the MEng degree should be at a higher level than the specialist subjects in a BEng degree. The MEng degree should also ensure that students achieve a greater breadth of education than students on a BEng degree.

112

Teaching: Undergraduate programmes designed to meet the QAA Qualification Standards and Engineering Benchmark Statements: http://www.qaa.ac.uk/AssuringStandardsAndQuality/subject-guidance/Pages/Subjectbenchmark-statements.aspx Each year of study (two semesters) of all BEng, BSc and MEng degree programmes is made up of modules totalling 120 credits. A typical module is worth 15 credits which requires a notional student learning time of 150 hours (made up of staff contact (lectures, laboratories, etc), private study and assessment). All of the programme specifications are available in this handbook, but students should also refer to them on the Departmental webpage (please see http:/www.liv.ac.uk/eee) for full details of the Aims, Learning Outcomes, Learning and Teaching Strategies, Assessment Strategies and Assessment Information. They should also refer to the Module Specifications, which can be accessed via VITAL https://vital.liv.ac.uk/webapps/login/ or the departmental intranet site: http://pcwww.liv.ac.uk/eee/index.htm for full details of the module Aims, Learning Outcomes, Learning and Teaching Strategies, Module Content, Assessment Requirements, Recommended Reading, etc. Lectures are the main formal setting for teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate level within the Department. Many of the engineering modules in each of the first two years of the undergraduate programmes have associated laboratory exercises that students undertake in smaller groups. Problem classes are also embedded in the structure of the module. The purpose of the laboratory exercises and problem classes is to reinforce the material taught in the lectures. Students are also expected to make oral presentations, as individuals and groups, related to laboratory exercises, design and projects. Teaching methods differ and are appropriate to the particular subject and its learning outcomes. The Department is open to consideration of different methods of teaching (e.g. Problem Based Learning and Interactive Teaching). Laboratory Exercises are led by a Demonstrator (Academic and/or Teaching Assistant). Students are given handouts that contain the necessary background to the exercise, and describe the apparatus and procedure. The handouts also ask a series of questions to stimulate the learning process and to guide the student when writing a report. Most programmes include design in all years of study. Students are introduced to Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) software in year 1; they use it and related software to tackle increasingly complex design problems, taking these problems through the Design Process from conceptual through embodiment to detailed design. Students also progress from working individually to working in small groups that require considerable communication and organisational skill to function effectively. Students also receive teaching in different practical skills that are appropriate to their particular degree.

113

4.2.1 Penalties for Late Submission of Assessed Work The Universitys standard penalties for the late submission of assessed work are: 5% of the total marks available for the assessment shall be deducted from the assessment mark for each working day after the submission date, up to a maximum of five working days (e.g. for work marked out of 100, five marks per day will be deducted; for work marked out of 20, one mark per day will be deducted); however, the mark will not be reduced below the pass mark for the assessment. Work assessed below the pass mark will not be penalised for late submission of up to five days. Work received more than five working days after the submission deadline will receive a mark of zero. In such circumstances, where a student is required to retake the assessment, the re-assessment task must be different from the original assessment. Re-submission of the original piece of work is not permissible, except in the case of project work or dissertations. A working day is defined as a day when the University is open and staff would normally be available for work and thus also be available for contact by students. 4.2.2 Penalties for Exceeding the Word Limit The School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Sciences policy for assessed work where there is a set maximum length (e.g. number of words or number of pages) is that no penalty should normally be applied where a student exceeds the limit set for assessed work. Where the work submitted exceeds the length allowed, the work may be marked and feedback may be given to the student. However, overly long submissions may require longer to mark than the guidelines given by University Code of Practice on Assessment. The only exception to this guideline is where the learning objectives for the assignment are specifically related to the length of the assessed work if the work requires that the assignment should be a summary or brief statement of work (e.g. an executive summary or design brief). In such cases, the work should be assessed up to the stated maximum length. Work after this maximum limit (words or pages) should not be used for assessment purposes, but feedback may be given to the student. 4.2.3 Procedures for Handling Request for Extensions The Department recognises that it is not always possible to submit coursework on time due to unforeseen circumstances. In the first instance, students should contact the relevant module co-ordinator with an explanation as to why the coursework submission will be submitted late. In most cases, the module co-ordinator will be able to inform you about the number of extra days you may have to complete and submit the coursework. In many cases you will be required to complete a mitigating circumstances form and may also need to provided documentary evidence to support this. Please contact the Student Support Office regarding this. 4.2.4 General Feedback Policy and Feedback Following Formal Examinations The Department is committed to providing constructive feedback to students on their individual academic performance, including whenever possible their 114

performance in exams and other assessments including coursework, class tests, laboratories and projects. The purpose of such feedback is to help students to improve their future performance. In the case of examination performance feedback, it does not provide an opportunity to appeal against marks awarded. We intend to provide constructive and supportive feedback to students. Feedback on Exam Performance Formal individual feedback on exam performance by module examiners will only take place after the appeals deadline for the assessment has passed, which is two weeks following release of module marks on Liverpool Life. This exam feedback procedure is therefore completely separate from the formal process in place for students to appeal against an individual module mark. It should be emphasised that marks CANNOT be modified in any way following the feedback session (unless a procedural irregularity is identified). The Department can only provide feedback on exam scripts for modules provided by the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics. The School of Engineering, Department of Mathematics, and other Departments that teach our students, have comparable procedures, and students must contact the relevant Student Support Offices in those Departments for examination feedback on their modules. In order to manage requests efficiently in view of the large number of students in the Department, the following procedure will be used: 1. Immediately after exam marks have been released on Liverpool Life, students will be informed of the procedures for obtaining feedback on their exam performance via email. At this time, generic class-feedback on exam performance (already provided by each module examiner on our module QA forms) will be made available on VITAL. Before requesting individual exam feedback, students should consult the generic feedback as it may help clarify issues related to exam performance. 2. Any student who wishes to request individual exam feedback should respond within two weeks by contacting the Student Support Office (SSO), indicating which exam script(s) they would like feedback on, and the reason that they wish to seek feedback on the script(s). If the reason is acceptable (intention to check marking of the script is not acceptable), the SSO will retrieve the exam script(s), and make arrangements for a feedback session with the examiner(s) concerned. Normally feedback sessions will take place in the third or fourth week following the release of January marks on Liverpool Life. After the release of May exams results, students who need to resit in August/September may seek feedback from the corresponding academic staff following the above procedure. For those students who have passed, but are not on campus during the summer, feedback may be provided in the first two weeks of the next academic year. However, any requests must be made within two weeks after the release of marks. 3. The feedback must be provided face to face, not via email or telephone. Depending on the number of students seeking feedback on a particular exam, one of the following procedures will be used: a. Generic group feedback on exams is provided wherever possible. Students will be invited in groups to meet with the module examiner at specific appointment times. At these meetings, students will be able to look through their marked exam scripts. The examiner will be present to answer specific questions about the scripts. 115

b. An individual appointment will be made by the SSC for each student to meet with the module examiner. Each student will be able to look through their marked exam script under supervision of the examiner, and given the opportunity to discuss their script directly with the examiner: the time available for this will depend on the number of students seeking feedback, but will typically be 5-10 minutes. NOTES In cases where the examiner is not available during the feedback period, feedback may be provided by another appropriate member of the academic staff of the Department. Students will be required to produce their University ID card if requested. Under no circumstances must the exam scripts be written on or modified in any way. Under no circumstances may the student copy, photograph, or take their exam script out of the room in which feedback is being given. Feedback on Class Test and Coursework Performance Feedback on students performance in class test and coursework is normally provided in two teaching weeks after the test or the submission deadline. Generic feedback on students overall performance should be provided either in lecture or on VITAL. Individual written feedback may be provided in students marked class test paper or coursework. In the case of online test, correct answers will be used as the form of feedback to individual students, and should be made available to students within two weeks after the closure of the test. If the feedback for a particular item of assessed work requires clarification, then any student may request further feedback from the assessor or he/she may wish to seek further feedback or guidance from his/her tutor. Feedback on Project Performance The final year projects (FYP) and MSc projects are based on two types of assessment components, presentations (bench inspectionsfor FYP only, and oral presentation) and reports (interim report, and the final thesis). All marking forms and the marking descriptors are available to students on the departmental Intranet. The marking descriptors explain clearly and in detail the different ranges of marks and what achievements they correspond to. Most components are marked by both supervisor and assessor. Each marking form is equipped with a comments and feedback section. Upon marking, the students can request to have immediate access to the forms from the SSO in order to analyse their feedback. In addition, the supervisors give direct feedback to the students in their project meetings, or when students visit their office after marks have been completed. Moreover, the students have access to the feedback and comments in those forms filled in by our Industrial Advisory Board and External Examiners. Feedback on Laboratory Assessment Performance Feedback for lab work, reports and coursework is provided (and sought) through a number of channels: 1. Instant personalised verbal and written feedback by the STA or staff member in the lab while marking workbooks, where applicable. 2. Written personalised feedback via GradeMark on VITAL/Turnitin within 5

116

weeks, to prevent collusion with students who have not yet done the experiment. The marks awarded can be released in 2 weeks after the submission of the lab reports. Generic feedback via email and Twitter about the cohort performance, common mistakes and ways to improve. Where necessary, group verbal feedback followed by an open QA session. Students are invited to request further personalised feedback via the Coursework Enquiry forms in the SSC. Students can also use this route to highlight marking discrepancies or to request clarifications. Lab workbooks have a detachable back page on which students are invited to provide anonymous constructive feedback on the particular experiment. The lab questionnaire is administered once each semester, and in addition to the tick-box feedback components, it also solicits written feedback on any aspects of the lab provision that concern them. The Staff-Student Liaison Committee has a standing item on the agenda for lab-related issues where student representatives are invited to provide feedback; a staff representative from the labs is also present to take note of this and respond where appropriate. Lab organisers periodically report back to the students via email and the SSLC with a list of actions taken/planned in response to feedback received.

4.2.5 Module Questionnaires Students are given the opportunity to express their views regarding Departmental modules via questionnaires, which are distributed to students in both semesters. Please ensure that you complete one of these questionnaires for each module you are registered for, as this is invaluable feedback for the Department and allows students to help shape the module content or its delivery. 4.2.6 Marking Descriptors The Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics own set of qualitative marking descriptors which describe what each mark range represents in terms of student achievement is provided below. Assessment tasks in the subjects studied within the School lie between two extreme types: Type A tasks where there is a correct answer and little or no opportunity for alternative approaches or displays of insight. For time-constrained assessments, the assessor must ensure that there is a reasonable allowance of time for the student to be able to recall, work out and write down the correct answer. Examples: the definition of a term or unit, a schematic or diagrammatic figure, a graph showing the relationship between characteristics, the implementation of a standard procedure (eg, a calculation), a computer programme to carry out a straight-forward task. Type B tasks where there is no definitive right answer; a range of possible answers could satisfy, to a greater or lesser extent, the question posed. The assessor can provide a sample answer that indicates one general approach to answering the question, the main points expected, the quantity and depth of 117

points expected, etc. There is no logical limit to the number of relevant points that a student could make. Therefore the assessor has to apply some form of constraint on the length of answer (eg, time in an exam or word-count in a coursework submission) and must therefore make his/her assessment bearing in mind the best answer that could reasonably be expected from a student at that level of study under the prevailing conditions (ie, exam or coursework). Examples: a discussion or evaluation of a concept or theory, a design solution to an open-ended problem, a report on a project. Many assessments lie between these extremes. For instance, a report on a laboratory exercise will have definable correct aspects (report structure, grammar, experimental arrangement and procedure, format of tabulated and graphed results) but there are also opportunities for the student to demonstrate understanding and originality in discussing and evaluating the results, suggesting experimental improvements and drawing conclusions. A major project is a Type B task. Since the assessment of projects is a more complex process, it is dealt with in a separate section below. Assessment of Type A tasks Students will have been given (or referred to a source for) the required definition, figure or procedure and may have been told how it would be assessed (eg, reproduce it, describe it, carry it out). The assessor will set the assessment task, bearing in mind how it relates to the module Learning Outcomes. He/she will then prepare the correct answer and an associated Marking Scheme (the total marks available being allocated to the various steps in the answer, according to volume and difficulty of the work required. Answers will be marked according to the extent and correctness of each students progress through the steps. The examiner should distinguish between correctness of the process and accuracy of the mathematics (thus a student who follows the correct process but makes an arithmetic error in an early step will get the wrong answer but may be awarded most of the marks).

Assessment of Type B tasks Students may or may not be formally taught the subject matter of the task. The assessor will set the assessment task, bearing in mind how it relates to the module Learning Outcomes. He/she may provide (or refer to a source for) guidance on how to tackle the task and perhaps an outline of some aspects of the answer or an example answer to a related task. Alternatively students may be required to develop their own approaches to the task. Unless time-constrained, the assessor must indicate the length of answer expected. Furthermore, he/she may provide the criteria by which student submissions will be assessed, and the relative weighting of criteria, for example: extent to which the requirements and constraints of the task have been satisfied; correctness of use and interpretation of relevant knowledge; extent of coverage of the topic; evidence of wider reading; 118

display of insight, understanding, originality, creativity, etc; quality of analytical and problem-solving skills; quality of communication skills. He/she may prepare a sample answer that is within the length constraint and matches the stage of development of understanding of the best students. He/she should check that, by applying the stated criteria, the answer would be assessed as at least Very Good. Some adjustment of the criteria may then be necessary. The answer will be marked according to the following Marking Descriptors; some virement will be necessary between the criteria:

When assessing student work, staff will apply the Faculty of Science and Engineerings General Marking Descriptors for Undergraduate Assessments (see below). Knowledge and Understanding 100% 90-99% Outstanding Intellectual Skills Transferable Skills

Assessment of Projects Each department provides detailed guidelines to students on the planning, implementation and assessment of major projects. Staff use standard mark sheets for each assessment element (one or more of: report, log book, oral presentation, viva) at each stage of the project (typically Proposal, Interim and Final). The weightings of each element of each stage are tabulated. Descriptive criteria are provided that indicate the features of an excellent submission. Administrative staff collate the assessment elements to arrive at the module mark. If the overall project mark is a marginal fail, the examiners and moderator will carry out a detailed review before approving the mark (since a failure means that the students degree may be unaccredited by one or more of the professional institutions).

Coursework is used wherever possible as a formative method of assessment, that is, to help students develop knowledge, understanding and skills. Coursework is returned to students, with feedback, within short timescales to help them to learn and develop. The marks for coursework submitted late will be reduced according to the Universitys lateness penalty scheme. Students are advised about plagiarism and collusion and warned about the very serious consequences of breaking University requirements. Coursework Submission Depending on the assignment you may be asked to submit a paper copy or an electronic copy. Electronic copies are submitted via VITAL (please see https://vital.liv.ac.uk/webapps/login/) and the deadline for the submission of these assignments is 23:59 on the date indicated.

120

Where a paper copy is requested it should be submitted to Student Support Office on the 5th floor. The deadline for paper copies will be 12 noon on the date indicated. When submitting paper copies of the coursework you should attach a copy of the coursework submission sheet to the front of the coursework, which will clearly indicate your year of study. You should also attach one copy of the rear cover sheet to the back of your coursework. These are found in the pigeonholes outside the Student Support Office. You are required to sign a statement on the coversheet indicating that it is your own work. The Department is very active in detecting and punishing plagiarism, collusion and cheating. If your coursework is submitted late and you feel that you have just cause for the lateness you should mention this to a member of staff in the Student Support Office when you submit this.

The submission sheet will then be stamped with the received date and you will be given a receipt which you should keep safe in an event where you need to prove that you have submitted your coursework. Coursework Portfolio All students are required to maintain a coursework portfolio. This is a collection of coursework for the current year of study which is kept in a file. The coursework portfolio may be used for various purposes: to assess a students progress at any time throughout the year; to assess a students performance for the award of prizes; to provide evidence of performance when a student is seeking employment; to provide evidence of programme standards for the purpose of accreditation and quality assessment. Students must keep their portfolios up to date. They will be required to submit them for inspection at short notice particularly at examination times or if they are required to attend meetings to discuss their progress. Examinations are used as a summative method of assessment; they take place at the end of the semester in which the module was taught or the end of semester 2 if the module was taught across two semesters. It is essential for every student to check his/her module registration details on the student database Liverpool Life before the end of week 8 of each semester. Any errors must be reported to the departmental office immediately. The students must ensure that their module registration meets the requirements of their programmes. Personal examination timetables will be available on this website at the beginning of week 12 of each semester, or by 1 August for August/September Resit Examinations.

121

This information is available only by accessing this website. General timetables of examinations will also be displayed in departments. Attendance at examinations. Students must attend all examinations required by their programme structure. For a student who is unable to attend an examination for a medical or non-medical reason should contact the Student Support Office via email or telephone. Any student who fails to attend an examination without a subsequently approved reason will be reported to Faculty Progress Committee to explain himself/herself. Students must check carefully the designated time and place of each examination; misreading the timetable is not an acceptable excuse.

5.6 Procedures for Handling Absences and Mitigating Circumstances Claims 5.6.1 Absence from studies If you are registered on an undergraduate or taught postgraduate course you may certify your absence through illness from lectures or other classes during a semester by the submission of a self-certified Absence form. Such a form will be valid for absence of up to five consecutive days. The Absence form does not need to be signed by a medical practitioner. The Absence form will not be valid for: Absence through illness for more than five consecutive days; Absence from examinations; Absence from class tests of other forms of assessment which count for 10% or more of the module mark. Absence forms can be obtained from the Student Support Office and should be submitted as soon as possible. The form cannot be accepted if submitted more than two weeks following the date of illness. Absence through illness for periods longer than five consecutive days must be supported by a medical certificate authorised by a medical practitioner and should be submitted by you to the Student Support Office. Absence for reasons other than illness can only be allowed after a request has been approved by the appropriate Head of School/Department. Any mitigating circumstances, such as ill health, which may have affected your studies or performance in assessments and examinations, would need to be submitted formally by you with supporting evidence, e.g. a medical certificate, to your School/Department following the procedures and in accordance with the deadlines laid down in the Universitys Mitigating Circumstances Policy. In the event that you are unable to attend an examination because of illness or other unforeseen circumstances, you must immediately inform your School/Departmental office, preferably before the start of the examination. If you are absent from the whole or part of an examination because of illness, a Mitigating Circumstances claim form together with a valid medical certificate or other appropriate independent documentary evidence must be forwarded to the School/Departmental Office normally within five working days of the examination and no later than one week before the meeting of the Board of Examiners at which the results of the assessments concerned will be considered. The deadline for submission of applications will be made available to students by means of email from the Student Support Office and VITAL. 5.6.2 Mitigating Circumstances Students sometimes perform more poorly in assessments (whether examinations or other types of assessments) than their previous performance or achievements would have predicted. Sometimes this poor performance can be attributed, or partially attributed, to particular circumstances beyond the control of the student. These 123

circumstances are described as mitigating circumstances if they are accepted in mitigation of the poorer than expected performance. When a Board of Examiners accepts that there have been mitigating circumstances, it will usually not regard the students poorer than expected performance at its face value in making decisions about the students progress in studies or final degree classification. Where circumstances are accepted in mitigation of poorer than expected performance students may be allowed (where practicable) to retake the assessment as if it were a first attempt. Mitigating circumstances may, for example, include: Illness affecting the student Bereavement Serious illness affecting a close family member Unforeseeable or unpreventable events Independent documentary evidence, such as medical certificates, must be provided in all cases to verify mitigating circumstances. If mitigating circumstances affect your studies then it is your responsibility to report all circumstances which you wish to be taken into consideration to the nominated person in your School/Department. You should report such mitigating circumstances as soon as possible (normally within five working days) after the events under consideration occur, and no later than one week before the meeting of the Board of Examiners at which the assessment concerned will be considered. 5.7 Attendance Monitoring The University is under an obligation to monitor the commitment to study of each student and to ensure that, if sufficient progress is being made, the situation can be discussed with the student. The aim of such a discussion will be to advise the student how performance on the specified assessments can be improved to enable progression to the next year of study, or the award of a degree. If commitment to study continues to be below standard, students should expect that their academic achievement will become compromised and not sufficient to permit progress to further study. 5.8 Guest Lectures and Seminars held in the Department A seminar programme takes place on Thursday mornings at 11.00 am in the Electrical Lecture Theatre (ELT). Seminars are presented by visiting speakers and by members of staff of the department. These are compulsory to all Year 2 and MSc (Eng) students but all are welcome to attend. 5.9 Wednesday Afternoons In common with many universities, formal learning and teaching sessions are not normally scheduled on Wednesday afternoons during term time to allow you to participate in sport and other activities. However you are expected to attend any scheduled learning and teaching activity up to 1pm on Wednesday afternoons.
