Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI): The use of AI technologies is permitted only for support tasks (such as information search, text correction, or translations) and in specific activities as indicated. Students must clearly identify the parts generated with AI, specify the tools used, and include a critical reflection on how these influenced the process and final outcome. Non-transparent use of AI will be considered a breach of academic integrity and may result in penalties.

Annotation: within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

This module does not provide for the single assessment system.


Any irregularity in an assessment activity —academic misconduct, plagiarism, or improper use of AI, unless such use is expressly authorised in the course guide— that may lead to a significant change in the mark shall result in that assessment activity being awarded a mark of 0. If the course guide establishes that obtaining a minimum mark in that assessment activity is an essential requirement for passing the course, or if several irregularities occur in the assessment activities of the same course, the final mark for that course shall be 0. In addition, disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who commits any of these irregularities.
