Examinations and Grades
Examinations, reports and other assignments are given in the Engineering Master’s Degree program courses. Faculty members grade students not only on their examinations but also on various assignments, course deliverables and class participation. However, grades are given for each of the courses offered in the program. A student receiving a grade of A/A-, B+/-, or C+/C satisfies the course requirement. To remain in good academic standing and to graduate from one of the Engineering Master’s Degree programs, a student must maintain a 3.0 GPA or “B” average.
Effective Fall 2005, graduate courses (X80-X99) taken in residence at The University of Texas changed to a plus/minus grading system. As part of the legislation, the following decimal grade equivalents were approved for implementation in the fall:
A = 4.00
A- = 3.67 |
B+ = 3.33
B = 3.00
B- = 2.67 |
C+ = 2.33
C = 2.00
C- = 1.67 |
D+ = 1.33
D = 1.00
D- = 0.67 |
F = 0.00 |
The legislation does not mandate that instructors assign plus/minus grades; it only provides an expansion of the existing grading system.
Grade Reporting
Students receive their semester grades online. Beginning with the spring semester, 2001, official grade reports are mailed only to students who have been awarded University Honors or whose scholastic status has changed. Other students must request an official grade report online in order to receive a hard copy. Grade reports must be requested each semester that the student wishes to receive a print out of their grades for company reimbursement, personal files, etc.
In general, official grade reports are sent to students' permanent addresses. Students using the online grade mailer request can ask to have their grade reports sent to their local addresses instead. In any case, if the permanent address is outside the U.S. and its territories, the grade report will be mailed to the student's local address. Replacement grade reports are not available.
The online grade report gives the same information as the official grade report. Both reports show:
- the grade assigned for each course in which a student was enrolled or earned credit by examination,
- semester hours of credit earned in the current semester,
- semester credit hours earned in all UT Austin coursework,
- current-semester grade point average,
- cumulative UT Austin grade point average,
- the total number of credit hours transferred from other institutions, and
- scholastic status and University Honors.
Online grade reports and online requests for grade mailers can be found at http://www.utexas.edu/student/registrar/grades/
Grade of Incomplete
If a student does not complete all the assignments in a course before the end of the course, the instructor may report the symbol “X” (incomplete) to the registrar in place of a grade. The student must then complete the course requirements by the last class day in his or her next long-session semester of enrollment; the instructor must report a final grade by the end of the grade reporting period in that semester. If these deadlines are not met, the symbol “X” is converted to the symbol “I” (permanent incomplete). If the student is not enrolled during a long-session semester for twenty-four months following the end of the semester in which the “X” is reported, and the instructor does not report a final grade, then the symbol “X” is converted to the symbol “I”. The symbol “I” cannot be converted to a grade. When the symbol “I” is recorded, the symbol “X” also remains on the student’s record.
Courses that convert to a permanent incomplete (I) must retake the course for credit towards their degree and pay the fee again.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism is an extremely serious violation of academic integrity. The Institutional Rules on Student Services and Activities at The University of Texas at Austin defines plagiarism as follows: "`Plagiarism' includes, but is not limited to, the appropriation, buying, receiving as a gift, or obtaining by any other means another's work and the submission of it as one's own academic work offered for credit" (Section 11-802(d)). Plagiarism can occur in a myriad of forms and media. Although most commonly associated with writing, all types of scholarly work, including computer code, music, scientific data and analysis, and electronic publications can be plagiarized. The aim of this section is to help students and faculty deal with the complex and important issue of plagiarism on campus.
Additional information regarding UT’s policy on this issue can be found at: http://deanofstudents.utexas.edu/sjs/academicintegrity2.html
Registration and Enrollment
An Engineering Master’s Degree program staff member will register students for their course offerings each semester. It is not necessary and we ask that individuals do not register themselves for their classes. Only students who are admitted in the program will be registered by an Engineering Master’s Degree program staff member in those courses. In the Software Engineering and Circuit Design programs only, it is important that students select the courses they wish to take and provide the information to the Engineering Master’s Degree program staff member in the time framed provided so that registration can be completed within the deadlines provided by the University. Additionally, students are unable to take courses other than those described and designated formally as part of the program as this is a University of Texas policy.
Additionally, students seeking an Engineering Master’s Degree program format take only those courses that are described and designated formally as part of the program, and will not receive degree credit for courses taken in other departments at The University of Texas. If a student wishes to enroll in a graduate program in another UT department, he or she must apply to, be accepted to, enroll in, and pay tuition for that program separately.
Required Materials and Software
The Engineering Master’s Degree programs provide all textbooks and required course materials for classes. Likewise, all required software is provided to each student. The costs for these materials are included in the program fees.
