  12. School of Electronic Engineering Timetables • Available for all Electronic Engineering postgraduate programmes on the web under the course code – ‘MEN’, Year C www.dcu.ie/timetables/search.shtml

  13. School of Electronic Engineering Examinations • SEMESTER 1 Mon 20 Jan - Fri 31 Jan 2014 • SEMESTER 2 Mon 19 May - Sat 31 May 2014 • Autumn 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

  14. School of Electronic Engineering Examinations • Students are NOT PERMITTED to retake exam or CA components, or modules already passed • Returning 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.pdf Exam Regulations – http://www.dcu.ie/registry/examinations/regulations.shtml Past Exam Papers – http://www.dcu.ie/internal/examinations/papers.php3

  15. School of Electronic Engineering Student Pitfalls According 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 issues • The one session repeat rule - A module may be attempted for a maximum of 2 years • There are three different Continuous Assessment categories 1 - resit is available for all components of the module 2 - no resit is available for a 100% CA module 3:- no resit is available for the CA component only

  16. School of Electronic Engineering Deferrals and Absences • To 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) • For forms, please see: • http://www.dcu.ie/registry/application_forms.shtml • Visit the Registry site at www.dcu.ie/registryfor more information

  17. School of Electronic Engineering Project • Coordinator – Jennifer Bruton • All activities will take place on the Moodle site • Please use your Project Code with all communications  • You mustbe registered to be allocated a project • When is the project typically undertaken?

  18. School of Electronic Engineering Registration

  19. School of Electronic Engineering Project Registration • Every student intending to graduate in 2013/14 should complete ONE of the following Masters project modules • EE592: Electronic Systems Project (MEN) • EE593: Telecommunications Eng. Project (MTC) • EE594: Nano Major Project (MEN-Nano) • EE595: Imaging Major Project (MEN-IPA) • EE596: Network Major Project (MTC-Network) • EE598: Semi-conductor manufacturing (MEN-SEMI)
