Type(s) and mode(s) of Q2 UE assessment

  • Oral examination - Face-to-face

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

Oral exam (AA Réseaux I) 70%, Lab sessions (AA Projet de Réseaux I) 30%. Passing the teaching unit (UE) requires passing both teaching activities (AA). Warning: The lab sessions only take place once during the year. It is not possible to repeat the lab sessions. As a consequence, if the student does not participate, he fails without possibility of a 2nd examination assessment. Only the oral part of the examination can be taken during the 2nd examination session assessment.
