Assessment

Edit Assessments Content

There will be 2 lab projects and four assignments. The tests will assess on theoretical concepts such as kinematic transformations and programming basic skills. Late assignment submission cannot exceed 5 working days. Exception will only be provided for special consideration, and will need paper convener approval.

Samples of your work may be required as part of the Engineering New Zealand accreditation process for BE(Hons) degrees. Any samples taken will have the student name and ID redacted. If you do not want samples of your work collected then please email the engineering administrator, Natalie Shaw (natalie.shaw@waikato.ac.nz), to opt out.
