CIVL 4136/6136 Syllabus

GRADING The final grades for the course will be based on the following percentages: Homework/Programs 30% Exams 40% Final Exam 30% --100% All students taking CIVL6136 are required to submit a term paper regarding a topic discussed in class. Students are to discuss their term paper topic with the professor and get an approval. ATTENDANCE Regular attendance is necessary to maintain pace with the lectures and the progress of the class. If you must be absent, please make sure you know the assignment for the following class meeting and turn in any work due that day. MAKE-UP WORK Generally, if a student misses an exam, a computer program, or a homework assignment a score of zero will be awarded. However, the student may be allowed to make-up an exam or turn in their homework late if a valid reason for the absence is presented to the instructor at the next class meeting. If the student must miss an exam because of a conflict in his/her schedule the student must notify the instructor in writing at least two days prior to the absence. Late homework problems will receive only a maximum of 50% of the grade. EXAM GRADE CHANGES After you receive a grade on your exam you will have one week to argue about your grade by writing a dated and signed memo to me explaining the reasons on why you think your grade needs to be changed. After one week I will not consider any arguments about grade changes.
