The following regulations shall be read in conjunction with the University's Rules and Bylaw, as contained in the UTS: Calendar and online at:

www.uts.edu.au/div/publications/cal/index.html

Attendance

It is the student's responsibility to attend lectures and carry out all assignment and examination work in every subject in which he or she is enrolled.

Checking enrolment details

It is the student's responsibility to check that his or her enrolment is correctly shown on the listings which are exhibited on the noticeboards during the first few weeks of each semester, and to notify the Faculty Office of any errors.

Withdrawal from subjects

Students are referred to the relevant University Rule regarding withdrawal from subject(s) and their program of study.

The Associate Dean, Teaching and Learning may grant approval for students to withdraw without academic penalty beyond the prescribed date.

Students having problems with the course caused by personal or work-related pressures are advised that the matter should, in the first instance, be discussed with the Course Coordinator or Director of Program.

Assessment

Final grading for progression is determined individually by Subject Coordinators. Class assignments and quizzes are therefore of great importance.

Final examinations for each subject are held at the end of the semester.

Conduct of the Examination Review Committee

The Faculty Board has determined that the following procedures govern the operation of Examination Review Committees for each course.

1. The Examination Review Committee is a subcommittee of the Faculty Board with delegated power to make decisions on behalf of the Board.
2. The Examination Review Committee may modify the assessment of any examiner, subject to the clauses below.
3. A Conceded Pass in a subject may be awarded if the following are satisfied:
1. the subject mark is in the range 45 to 49 per cent
2. the student's weighted average mark for the assessment period is 55 per cent or greater
3. only one failure is recorded for that assessment period.
4. Extenuating personal circumstances should not be taken into account in the examiners' assessments, but any such circumstances and recommendations may be brought to the attention of the Examination Review Committee.
5. Results should not be withheld unless the issue is expected to be determined within a week (e.g. by the submission of further or revised work) of the commencement of the following semester. Otherwise a failure should be recorded.
6. The Dean or Associate Dean, Teaching and Learning may amend the decisions of the Examination Review Committee in the case of obvious clerical or arithmetic errors.
7. Except as to (6), no alterations may be made to the subject assessments of the Examination Review Committee other than by the use of an official review procedure.
8. The Responsible Academic Officer may amend the progression of a student as determined by the Examination Review Committee in the light of subject reassessments.
9. All alterations made under (6) are to be reported to the Faculty Board.

Assignments

Assignments are to be handed in on or before the date and time specified in the program. Late assignments are not accepted unless accompanied by a medical certificate or the like. It is each student's responsibility to make sure that the receipt of his or her assignment is noted by the lecturer.

Lecturers may, at their discretion, accept late assignments (and exact appropriate penalties) if students make arrangements in advance.

University Medal

A student who displays exceptional merit in any of the undergraduate degree courses may be recommended for the award of the University Medal in addition to graduating with First Class Honours. Any such recommendation is submitted to the appropriate University committee for approval.

Articulation and progression

• On the recommendation of the Examination Review Committee, the Faculty Board may, in exceptional circumstances, exempt a student from the regulations relating to progression.
• The year in these regulations is defined as the program for a year shown in the current edition of the Faculty handbook.
• A student may not enrol in subjects spanning more than two consecutive years of the course.
• A student may undertake subjects totalling not more than 12 credit points from the previous level while doing a full program from the next year.
• A full-time student who is required to repeat subjects totalling more than 12 credit points may enrol in subjects from the next year which would bring the student's total program to not more than 48 credit points.
• A part-time student who is required to repeat subjects totalling more than 8 credit points may enrol in subjects of the next year which would bring the student's total program to not more than 32 credit points.
• In exceptional circumstances, course programs at variance with the above rules may be approved by the Associate Dean, Teaching and Learning.

Honours

Students who achieve a minimum of a Credit weighted average mark in their first two levels of study may be invited to undertake the Honours program. The Honours program is taken as additional subjects, focusing on property research and analysis, an Honours research proposal and a thesis.

Other information

Course queries of a general nature should be addressed to the Director of Program and Subject Coordinators. However, matters concerning a single subject should be raised, in the first instance, with the lecturer in that subject.
