The evaluation methods comply with the regulations concerning studies and exams (https://uclouvain.be/fr/decouvrir/rgee.html). More detailed explanation of the modalities specific to each learning unit are available on their description sheets under the heading “Learning outcomes evaluation method”.
Assessment of acquired knowledge (formal assessment) takes place during exam sessions. Most exams are written.
Three examination sessions are organised during the academic year, in January, June and August/September. First-year students who do not achieve passing grades in the January session have two opportunities to retake specific examinations, in June and September.
Formative assessments take place during the academic year in the form of practical work to be prepared. For some course units, a continuous assessment system is used in addition to the exam.
