Assessment procedures
The curriculum is divided into three semesters with the last week reserved for examinations.
The grading of students is in accordance with the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) standard promoted by the European Union. The evaluation system complies with the internal regulations of the 2022-2023 studies; the average of a course or a module makes it possible to appreciate the efforts made by each student and to give him/her elements of decision in his/her academic and professional choices.
It includes elements of continuous assessment, the evaluation of different assignments and the grade obtained during the semester assessments.
Under the direction of the Director of the School, the school jury meets once a year to decide on the case of each student (passing, repeating, reorientation).
A student validates his/her year with 90 ECTS (i.e. 30 ECTS per semester) and an average of 10/20 per module, knowing that 5 is an eliminatory mark for a course.
In addition, all the pedagogical conditions must be fulfilled:
- Master's thesis
- Oral defense
- Company assessment
Any student who does not obtain an average of 10/20 in a module will be called to the make-up session to retake the exams that will have been defined by the passing jury.
A second School Jury will take place after the remedial session to decide on the case of each student: conditional passage for alternating students over 2 years, repetition, reorientation, exclusion, gap year.
