Syllabus

Course Policies:

Attendance
In concurrence with the outlined policy as stated in the undergraduate handbook, I expect, and encourage all students enrolled in this course to attend each scheduled lecture.  Excessive (3, or more) absences will result in a failing grade.

Standards of Academic Conduct
It is the responsibility of each student to familiarize him/herself with the institutions policy on acceptable academic conduct.  Please refer to you student handbook for said policies.  In short any student intentionally presenting work performed by others as his/her own will receive a failing grade in this course, and be referred to the Colleges judicial board for review.

Students with disabilities
Individuals should schedule an appointment with me, their advisor, and or the Office of Academic Support Services to discuss their needs.

Missed Examinations
Unexcused absences will result in a zero grade unless justified by a medical reason with accompanying formal documentation from a licensed medical professional.  Justified absences will result in a make up examination being awarded.

Course evaluation
Final grade determination is the summation of 4 individual examinations and the lab practical.  Lab is worth 1/5th of the course grade.  Grade scale: A=93-100, A- =90-92, B+ =87-89, B=83-86, B- =80-82, C+ =77-79, C=73-76, C- =70-72, D+ =67-69, D=63-66, D- =60-62, F<60.
