RI Rules and Regulations

Regardless of the university or bachelor programme where you have your main registration as a student, the General BA Course and Examination Regulations of the Faculty of Humanities of Leiden University applies to all the courses (Thematic Modules and Student Project Group) in the RI minor: http://hum.leiden.edu/students/regulations/ma-rma.html

Grading

The minor consists of two courses of 15 EC. Each course of 15 EC is subdivided into 4 courses:
- 3 Thematic Modules of 4 EC each;
- and the Student Project Group (SPG) of 3 EC

Erasmus students with a minor space of 15 EC can follow only the first course of 15 EC in the first Quarter. TU Delft and Leiden students need to follow all courses in Quarter 1 and 2 (in total 30 EC).

In order to pass the minor, you need to obtain a minimum grade of 6,0 or higher for all courses: this means a 6,0 or higher for all the Thematic Modules and a 6,0 or higher for the Student Project Group.

There are no course grades given between 5,0 and 6,0: a 5,50 and higher will be rounded up to 6,0 and a 5,49 and lower will be rounded down to 5,0. Outside this range (5,0 - 6,0) all end results will be expressed in a round number or a number with one decimal.

4.3 Re-sits

You are allowed one re-sit per examination. It is not allowed to re-sit an examination or assignment for which you have received a pass (6,0 or higher). It is allowed to re-sit an examination or assignment which you haven't done during the first occasion. The re-sit consists of an individual assignment and needs to be discussed with the teacher of the course in line with examination regulations. The re-sit assignment has to be done within a month after completion of the assignment it is a re-sit for.

In case you are granted an extra re-sit by the Board of Examiners (see 4.4) this re-sit has to take place within study year 2016-2017. This means you have to complete the minor within one study year.
