9. Choosing Your Modules Programme Planner for 2012/13 Semester 1/2 IMPORTANT NOTES: Electronic Systems Students can choose ANY 8 modules. Telecoms students MUST take at least 6 modules from the telecoms module set plus ANY other two modules Various Major students are further restricted in their choices See http://www.dcu.ie/electronics/post/modules/index.shtml for module descriptions and criteria for Majors.

10. Programme Planner 2012-2013 MASTERS PROJECT Every student should complete ONE of the following Masters project modules Project Module Codes for each M.Eng flavour: EE592: Electronic Systems Project (MEN) EE593: Telecommunications Eng. Project (MTC) EE594: Nano Major Project (MEN-Nano) EE595: Imaging Major Project (MEN-IPA) EE596: Network Major Project (MTC-Network) EE598: Semi-conductor Manufacturing Major Project (MEN-Semi)

11. Credits & Weightings All taught modules are worth 7.5 ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System) The PROJECT is worth 30 credits. For final precision mark computation: All taught modules are weighted 100 The PROJECT is weighted 350

12. Award Classifications MASTERS Pass - 90 credits & a precision mark of less than 60% 2ndClass Hons - 90 credits & a precision mark of 60-69% 1stClass Hons - 90 credits & a precision mark of 70-100%

13. Graduate Diploma/ Graduate Certificate Exit awards Graduate Diploma - 60 credits (8 EE5XX modules level 9) Graduate Certificate- 30 credits (4 EE5XX modules level 9) Note: If you fail a module, the precision mark will be calculated with the mark received in the first sitting, regardless of the result in the re-sit

20. Student Pitfalls According to DCU Regulations 1) The four year rule - there is a maximum of 4 year anybody can spend on our Masters programme, - this includes deferred years and work or illness-related issues The one session repeat rule 2) - there are a max of four attempts at any module except the project - there are a maximum of two attempts at the project There are three different CA categories 3) - 1: resit is available for all components of the module - 2: no resit is available for a 100% CA module - 3: no resit is available for the CA component only

21. Deferrals and Absences To defer an entire academic year, complete a Deferral of Academic Year form (R-32) https://www4.dcu.ie/sites/default/files/registry/pdfs/R32.pdf To defer exams, complete a Deferral of Examination Form (R-33) https://www4.dcu.ie/sites/default/files/registry/pdfs/R33.pdf - Separate forms are required for each exam session (including re-sit) Unexplained absences from exams result in a FAILED ATTEMPT. Therefore: - Ensure you are registered correctly - If absent, complete an Absent from Examination Form (R-41) https://www4.dcu.ie/sites/default/files/registry/pdfs/R41.pdf For other forms, please see: http://www.dcu.ie/registry/application_forms.shtml Submission of forms will be accepted at the Faculty Office (L115)
