COURSE POLICIES
A. Attendance Students are expected to attend ALL class
sessions. Attendance shall be checked every class session. In case
that there is cancellation of classes for any reason, the affected
assignment / presentation / topics of the affected meeting are
automatically rescheduled to the following class session. B.
Cheating / Plagiarism Academic integrity is of utmost importance.
YOU alone must be the sole author of your assignments and
examinations. Cheating and plagiarism in any form shall be dealt
accordingly. C. Class Discussions The use of cellular phones is NOT
allowed during class lecture and laboratory hours. Thus,
free-riding is strictly not allowed in any group work. D. Other
Rules
1. As mandated, seating arrangement must be designed in the
class. The instructor will decide on how it should be arranged.
-
2. A class president / representative must be elected. He/she
will be the representative for the class that the
instructor will be communicating to. Also, he/she shall take
good care of all the necessary functions that will be needed
before, during and after classes (e.g. Setting up the projector,
Opening of the room before class, Photocopying of notes that will
be distributed, etc.).
3. Any misbehavior will be dealt accordingly with the
jurisdiction of code of conduct and ethics. As IEs, we are highly
disciplined engineers.
