Semester Projects

It is highly recommended that the documentation and presentations of these projects are carried out in English. This year, we introduced a different form of project management, which is based on a plan completed at the beginning of the project. The students should spend the first 2 weeks of work to understand precisely the goal of the project and acquire the needed background knowledge. At the end of this preparation, a precise plan for the rest of the work should be submitted by filling in the following document:
Planning semester projects (word document)
The submission is done by sending the document by E-mail to [email protected].
The grading is based on a weigthed average of different elements of the work. These elements include both the quantity and quality of work, and the presentation (written report, mideterm and final presentation). The following document will be used to determine a proposition for final grade. The jury will take the final decision on the basis of such a proposition.
