Verification of learning
THERE ARE WRITTEN AND ORAL EXAMINATIONS THAT WILL TEST WHETHER THE STUDENT HAS ATTAINED THE OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE. THE STUDENT MUST PASS THE WRITTEN EXAMINATION IN ORDER TO TAKE THE ORAL EXAMINATION. THE WRITTEN EXAMINATION, WHICH COMPRISES A MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST BASED ON THE COURSE WORK, PRECEDES THE ORAL EXAMINATION

HONOURS MAY BE AWARDED TO STUDENTS WHO DEMONSTRATE IN DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT MATTER AND / OR KNOWLEDGE THAT GOES BEYOND THE BASICS OF THE COURSE WORK.
