Minimum requirements to pass this Unit
As the minimum requirements of assessment to pass a unit and meet all Unit Learning Outcomes to a minimum standard, a student must:
· achieve an overall mark for the unit of 50% or more, and
· achieve at least 40% in each individual component (Cad Revit; Civil3D; Microsoft Excel and SpaceGass)
Students who do not achieve at least 40% for each individual component will receive a maximum of 44% as the total mark for the unit and will not be eligible for a conceded pass.
