To successfully complete the course, you will need to score at least 5.8/10 (rounded to 6) as overall grade, based on the three tests below, and at least 5/10in each of the three tests.

1. Assignments on electromagnetics and antennas counts 25% of final grade

2. Assignments on transmission lines counts 25% of final grade

3. Final written exam on theory counts 50% of final grade

All tests are mandatory. Assessment criteria for the tests are detailed in the course.

Permitted Materials during Tests

- An equation sheet will be provided during the tests

- Calculator (handling complex number) is needed

If a students cannot attend or fails one or two tests, at the resit he/she needs only to redo the missing parts.
