| Criteria for evaluation |
In total, students have the possibility to reach 100 points. For a passing grade students must obtain at
least 50 per cent in each category AND at least 60 per cent of the total points. The final grade will be
calculated according to the following formula: 0-59.5 (5); 60-69.5 (4); 70-79.5 (3); 80-89.5 (2); 90-100 (1).
The assessment of this course is based on the following requirements:
| Level | Assessment | Percentage |
|---|
| Individual | Mid-Term (Short) Test | 20% |
| Individual | Final Exam | 40% |
| Group | Presentation | 20% |
| Group | Case Study Analysis | 20% |
The teaching language is English. Students are expected to attend all sessions and stay for the whole
duration of each session. Students who do not attend 80% of the total class time will automatically receive
a negative course grade. If there are scheduling conflicts, students must notify the lecturer at least 24
hours in advance. Absences that are not communicated with lecturers before the start of the session will
not be excused. Consequently, any missed graded component in the respective session will result in a
negative component grade.

As an academic institution, the Department of International Management does not tolerate any form of
academic dishonesty. Plagiarism encompasses presenting as one’s own the words, work, opinions, or
information of someone else without giving that person credit, as well as borrowing the sequence of
ideas, the arrangement of material, or the pattern of thought of someone else without proper
acknowledgement. All discovered instances will result in an immediate decrease in grade of the
assignment or exam. In severe cases, this may result in a failing grade for the assignment or exam. In
addition, there will be an automatic decrease in overall grade. Consequently, this may result in the
failure of the course. In the case of group work, the consequences will be extended to the entire team.
