Class attendance is highly recommended.
Please check the course Blackboard web-site often for updated course information.
Exam attendance is required (no make-up exams will be given).
Homework should be done on 8 1/2 x 11 engineering green paper or equivalent (single sided)
Ten homework sets will be turned in for grading. All homework problems in a set are to be
turned in. However, only one or two problems per set will be graded. Homework will be due at
instructor specified dates. The homework problems to be turned in and the date they are to be
turned in will be announced in class and also on Blackboard. Each homework score is therefore
worth 1% of the course grade.
Final course grades will be determined by the instructor using a modified curve system.
