 BMT 1103 Course Syllabus Fall-2024

a. This course is best suited to a lecture format, and students are encouraged to ask
questions and participate. Everyone is expected to read about each topic in the text before
the topic is presented in class. I will resist slowing down the class for a few people who
are unprepared.

b You will only be tested on the material covered in class. For example, I will not ask you
a test question that expects you to remember a topic or application from the text not
covered in class. Instead, the text should be used to help you understand the lectures. No
make-up examination will be given except for compelling reason by special arrangement
in advance. Absent from Final examination without prior information results in F grade.

c. Quizzes will be administered at the beginning of the class. No make-up quiz will be
administrated under any circumstances.

d. Any kind of cheating will result in cancellation of the exam.

e. When it comes to your grades, I do not do things such as an extra assignment or take
another exam to improve your grades. So be careful and study seriously for your midterm
exam

f. Mobile phone should be turned off or put into silent mode during class. No prolonged
27 Additional
“side discussions” will be tolerated during class as they distract others. Anyone who
Course persists in disrupting the class will be asked to leave the classroom.
Policies
g. Students attending all classes except three will be awarded with the allocated 5 points.
Students being absent for a class shall be penalized 0.25 points for every occasion

h. Mobile phone should be turned off or put into silent mode during class. No prolonged
“side discussions” will be tolerated during class as they distract others. Anyone who
persists in disrupting the class will be asked to leave the classroom.

i. Students attending all classes except three will be awarded with the allocated 5 points.
Students being absent for a class shall be penalized 0.25 points for every occasion beyond
that. Please note that your class attendance must be above 80% to sit for any make up
exam.

j. Please be in the class on time. Late attendance will not be allowed. Moreover, if you
miss a class, it is your responsibility to get class notes and information from fellow
classmates.

k. Assignments must be your individual work, and copying the answers of another student
is definitely cheating. Also, no late assignment will be accepted under any circumstances.

l. You are expected to follow the counseling time-table as set out in this course syllabus.
