Requests for regrading or grade adjustments are accepted up to one week after the homework or test is handed back to the student. There will be assignments issued from time to time. Oral discussion about assignments is not considered cheating. Copying someone else's assignment or part of an assignment is cheating. If cheating is discovered, all students involved will receive no credit for the assignment, possibly an 'F' grade for the course, and the matter can be reported to the Dean in accordance with UT policies.
Students can evaluate the course and instructor during the last week of classes.
The course evaluation forms are kept by the Department and are not delivered to the Instructor until after the final grades have been reported. Additional references pertinent to the course will be provided at the appropriate time. The University of Texas at Austin provides upon request appropriate academic adjustments for qualified students with disabilities. Real industrial examples will be used to highlight the principles being discussed. Further research in the understanding of the complexity of the design process will be pointed to.
