Missed Exam Policy

Students must contact the instructor PRIOR to missing an exam to schedule a makeup exam. Makeup exams will only be scheduled following an exam in cases of documented emergencies.

Late Project Policy

Projects submitted after the due date/time are considered late and will not be graded. Late assignments will only be graded in cases of documented emergencies.

Plagiarism

Discussion of course material and collaboration with other students is encouraged but each student must write/type and submit his/her own solution. Your code and proofs (if applicable) should never contain sections which are identical to the submission of another student, past or present. Submitted work must be entirely that of the student(s) whose name(s) appear(s) on the submission and not solicited in any way from others. Violation of these policies can result in automatic failure of the course.
