CS 494/594 - Course Grades and Policies

Absences
Homework - if you miss class, you are still responsible for the material covered in the lecture and any assignment that is made. Your absence does not change the due date of an assignment.
Exams - no makeup examinations will be given unless an acceptable reason is presented to the instructor before the scheduled examination date.
Labs - if you miss lab, you are still responsible for completing the assigned labwork by the due date (which may be at the end of any lab period on Wednesdays).

Due Date Policy
Homework - all written assignments are due at the beginning of class on the specified due date. NO LATE WRITTEN ASSIGMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
Labs - no late laboratory assignments will be accepted for grading after a due date. This policy will be strictly enforced (no exceptions).

494/594 Differences
Labs - the laboratory work of students registered for CS494 will count 30% while those registered for CS594 will have labs count 20% of their final grade.
Presentations - students registered for CS594 will be required to make two oral presentations (normally no longer than 15-20 minutes) sometime during the semester. Students may volunteer or be assigned a presentation by the instructors during the semester. For CS594 students, failure to complete two presentations during the entire semester and at least one presentation prior to the Midterm Exam will lower their final course grade by one letter.
