12School of Electronic EngineeringExaminationsSEMESTER 1 Mon 20 Jan - Fri 31 Jan 2014SEMESTER 2 Mon 19 May - Sat 31 May 2014Autumn Resits to be confirmed
The exam timetable is displayed by the DCU Exams Office on student portal pages and DCU site 4-6 weeks prior to exams
For 2013/14 examination timetable,see: http://www.dcu.ie/timetables/examinations.shtml
13School of Electronic EngineeringExaminationsStudents are NOT PERMITTED to retake exam or CA components, or modules already passedReturning students must take all assessment elements for that academic year (even those passed previously)Useful links:Marks & Standards http://www.dcu.ie/registry/examinations/marks_and_standards.pdfExam Regulations http://www.dcu.ie/registry/examinations/regulations.shtmlPast Exam Papers http://www.dcu.ie/internal/examinations/papers.php3
14School of Electronic EngineeringStudent PitfallsAccording to DCU Regulations:The four year rule- The maximum time a student may spend on a Masters Programme is 4 years- This includes Qualifier years and deferred years due to work or illness-related issuesThe one session repeat rule - A module may be attempted for a maximum of 2 yearsThere are three different Continuous Assessment categories 1 - resit is available for all components of the module2 - no resit is available for a 100% CA module3:- no resit is available for the CA component only
15School of Electronic EngineeringDeferrals and AbsencesTo defer an entire academic year, complete a Deferral of Academic Year (R-32) form
Unexplained absences from exams result in a FAILED ATTEMPT. Therefore:Ensure you are registered correctly If absent, complete the appropriate form: postponement of examination form before the exam (R-33) and extenuating circumstances form after the examination (R-30)
