BEng (Hons) in Electrical Engineering 2010/2011

1 Preamble 1.1 Revisions The BEng (Hons) programme is the major Electrical Engineering degree programme in Hong Kong at the present time. Changes are introduced as necessary from time to time in order to reflect the latest technological development. Most of the changes have taken place since 1990 when a major revision was undertaken to enhance the programme. The revised scheme in 1990, which was in place until 94/95, included two modifications of particular importance: the use of a semester structure and making the third year (industrial attachment/sandwich) optional. In 1995, the BEng (Hons) programme in the Department required another revalidation. At that time the Department decided to take a natural step in converting all programmes from modular structure to credit-based framework. Both The Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE) and The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) were invited to accredit the BEng (Hons) degree programme. In the credit-based structure, the students are able to determine their own pace of study. This is very much in line with modern education philosophy. With the introduction of the credit-based structure, students are able to make up a specific programme to suit their personal aspirations within the confines of the framework of the BEng (Hons) curriculum. Being flexible, there is no ‘year’ concept in a credit-based system and the subjects are offered at distinct levels. The subjects in Level 2 must be taken by all students in the programme although they can defer a few subjects until later. Electives are available in Levels 3 and 4. However, students must take a compulsory set of subjects which are designed to give vertical integration in electrical engineering. The Department conducted a self critical review of the curriculum which included feedback from employers, graduates and current students. Hence, English and Chinese, telecommunication, environmental awareness, electrical building services and total quality management were all given increased weight in the 94/95 revision. Elective subjects in Level 4 were also reviewed to address changes in career aspirations of graduates and advances in technology. The BEng (Hons) Programme Committee believes it is advantageous for budding potential engineers to undertake a sandwich training year since experience has shown that working in industry broadens the outlook of students, helps them to put their studies in a proper perspective and certainly makes them more mature. An added advantage of the credit-based structure is that, subject to timetable constraints, the sandwich students may make use of the evenings during the sandwich year to study Levels 2 or 3 subjects which have been deferred previously or, in some cases, take some Level 4 subjects in advance. Students have more flexibility in determining their study pace and the optional sandwich year is expected to have more appeal under the credit-based structure. Besides, students are still required to undertake a minimum of eight weeks of employment in industry. In early 2005, an institutional exercise was carried out to reduce credit number for undergraduate programmes. The programme components were then adjusted to fit the 90-credit requirement (excluding training components). Curriculum review was incorporated in this exercise to introduce outcome-oriented model in the curriculum design. The intended learning outcomes were clearly articulated at programme and subject levels and the teaching and assessment methods are aligned accordingly to achieve the intended outcomes. Further, the mandatory



2

Work-Integrated Education (WIE) component was introduced, in which the activities must be structured and measurable. From the 2007/08 academic year, the Department was given the flexibility to enhance the credit requirement of the programme up to 99. As a result, the English subjects were then substantially strengthened while the 2-credit technical subjects were expanded to 3 credits in alignment with other technical subjects. A subject to prepare the students on their Individual Projects, Project Methodologies, was also introduced. This programme thus seized the maximum increase of credit requirements, with a total of 99 credits. With the notion of outcome-based education in full swing, the programme outcomes were reviewed after two years of operation and hence the subject outcomes were fine-tuned accordingly to fully support and reflect the programme outcomes. This timely revision was put into implementation for the 2008/09 cohort. To better equip students for the demands of the engineering careers in Hong Kong and China, subjects on accounting, finance and management were included in the curriculum. The programme and subject outcomes will be assessed in stages according to a Learning Outcomes Assessment Plan (LOAP) adopted by the Departmental Learning and Teaching Committee. For the 2009/10 cohort, changes in Industrial Centre Training scheme and Summer Industrial Training requirements were implemented. Minor changes in General Assessment Regulations were also made to align with those approved by the University. 1.2 Subjects With the credit-based structure, most of the subjects in the BEng (Hons) programme are available to students in the full-time or sandwich or part-time mode. Thus, there is a total uniformity in the honours standard for all graduates. The Subject Description Forms, outlining the subject outcomes and syllabi, are shown in Appendix I. 2 General Information 2.1 Programme Title Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Electrical Engineering 電機工程學(榮譽)工學士學位 2.2 Duration and Mode of Attendance A student normally takes 3 years full-time with an option of an additional year for sandwich. The maximum period of registration is 6 years for the full-time mode of attendance; and 7 years for the sandwich mode.

2.6 Major/Minor Option In line with the University’s Regulations, students in this programme are offered the option of either continuing with the single-discipline degree programme (i.e. BEng (Hons) in Electrical Engineering) or following the major/minor option. Usually, the student may choose to exercise this option at the second semester of the first year of the programme. The Major programme details are given in Appendix III. For non-EE students opting to study ‘Minor’ in Electrical Engineering, they must take 18 credits of EE subjects, of which 9 credits must be of Level 3 or above. 2.7 Summer Training/Industrial Placement Summer Training at the Industrial Centre (IC) and practical work experience in industry are vital components to attain the programme outcomes. The training/industrial placement is credit-bearing and compulsory in the programme, constituting the Work-Integrated Education activities as stipulated by the University. The required credits, structure and assessment of the Work-Integrated Education and Industrial Centre training are described in details in Sections 4.3 and 4.4. 2.8 Student Exchanges Exchanges to Universities overseas for a semester or an academic year are possible through various exchange schemes organised by the PolyU or individual departments. While the number of exchanges is limited, students are encouraged to participate to enhance their all-roundedness and broaden their experience. Block credit-transfers may be given to exchanged-out students. However, in order to ensure attaining pre-requisite knowledge for smooth integration of study, the students will be counselled on subject selections in the visited Universities before they leave for the exchange. 2.9 External Recognition The BEng (Hons) degree programme has been internally validated by the University. It is also accredited by The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE) as meeting the academic requirements for its Corporate and Graduate Membership. 2.10 Summer Term Teaching



5

Usually, there will be no summer term teaching on Engineering subjects. Industrial Centre Training or External Training will take place during summers of the first two years. 2.11 Daytime and Evening Teaching Subjects will be offered predominantly during the day. Some subjects, particularly the elective subjects in the senior years, may be made available only in evenings or Saturdays. 2.12 Mathematics Benchmark Test (MBT) The following categories of students admitted to this programme will be requested to take a mandatory Mathematics Benchmark Test prior to the commencement of their studies: 1) JUPAS admittees who do not have a “pass” in A-level or AS-level Mathematics subject(s); and 2) Non-JUPAS admittees with the exception of those who are given credit-transfer for the subject AMA201. Those who fail the MBT will be required to take a mandatory subject Foundation Mathematics (AMA106) in the first semester of the first year. 2.13 Foundation Mathematics (AMA106) Students who are required to take Foundation Mathematics (AMA106) must pass the subject before taking other mathematics subjects in the curriculum. Foundation Mathematics AMA106 is thus a pre-requisite to AMA201 for students who do not pass the MBT, but it does not constitute part of the curriculum. As the subject is non-credit bearing, the grade will NOT be counted towards the GPA or WGPA, but it will be recorded in the transcript of studies. 3 Aims and Rationale 3.1 Programme Philosophy and Objectives The programme aims to provide the students with a sound education in the principles of the major aspects of electrical engineering and to furnish an opportunity for detailed study in a choice of specialist areas in electrical engineering. The programme is designed to produce engineers who will be able to practise their profession worldwide while being particularly competent to do so in the context of Hong Kong and China. Bearing in mind that engineers frequently change activities and also employment during their careers, education to prepare students for working life, rather than their first jobs, is the aim. Emphasis is, therefore, placed on the understanding of fundamental concepts which will always be applicable and valid. The teaching of particular techniques which may have a shorter duration of applicability, however, cannot be neglected. Applications will change rapidly as technology develops but the underlying theories hardly change. It is therefore important not to emphasise training at the expense of education.



6

It is our perception that industrial employers recruit engineers who have a broad-based education, but, at the same time, possess adequate specialist knowledge to undertake detailed technical work in design and production. Therefore, the Programme is designed to produce graduates who have not only developed a thorough understanding of electrical engineering including interdisciplinary aspects, but also acquired a broad and general appreciation of engineering activity outside the confines of electrical engineering. The students are guided to learn the interfaces between specialist engineering areas and to be prepared to work in a multidisciplinary work environment which usually involves colleagues from other engineering backgrounds. At the same time, the students must become aware that ‘a good engineering solution’ is one which fulfils economic and financial criteria as well as the engineering design specifications. This necessitates the inclusion of the study of finance, accounting and management with particular reference to engineering activities, as well as the inter-relations between engineering activities and society as a whole. Engineers must be able to express themselves clearly, both in written reports or verbal presentations. This has led to the inclusion of English and communication subjects, as well as a teaching approach which involves seminars, discussions, in-class feedback, assessed presentations, demonstrations of project work and formal laboratory reports in the programme. The Department has increased the contact hours in the English-related subjects in order to curtail any deficiencies that our graduates may have. It is important to train and educate our students not only in cognitive ability in technical areas but also in life skills. Hence, students are exposed to situations where they are assisted to learn: - to develop their intellectual abilities (creative thinking, critical/independent judgement

making, ability to analyze and synthesize, and to cope with real-life conditions such as indeterminacy, lack of information and time pressure); and

- to develop their social abilities (personal and public relations, team work, handling of

responsibility/authority etc). In this undergraduate programme, the fundamentals of electrical engineering are covered in the non-deferrable subjects in Level 2, the basic knowledge areas are covered in Level 3 and the specialisms are introduced in Level 4. All the deferrable subjects in Level 2 must be completed before any student can graduate. Students should not be under the illusion that deferrable subjects are unimportant. The credit-based structure described in this booklet has been discussed extensively, and it has been reckoned that the students will benefit from such a structure as the subject materials are to be disseminated in better organised breadth and depth. Students are provided with training at the Industrial Centre so that they learn the applications of engineering technologies. They are also required to undertake industrial attachment during the summer at the end of the second year of study, which gives them the opportunity to experience the industrial working environment. A full year spent in industrial attachment for the sandwich students allows a deeper appreciation of EE in the industrial context. Again the credit-based structure should make the sandwich year more attractive, since the students can take some of their academic subjects during the sandwich year, thereby maintaining their links with the Department whilst earning their professionally recognised training experience. The fact that the students are being trained to control their own pace of study without imposing any major burden upon the Department is seen as a good training for potential engineers, who must learn time management skills in order to cope with tight time schedules in their careers.

The programme objectives are given as follows: 1. To provide students with a broad base of knowledge in the fundamentals of electrical

engineering and its current applications. 2. To prepare students for working life including the skills needed for lifelong learning. 3. To produce engineers with the understanding of their obligations to society. 3.2 Programme Outcomes Programme outcomes refer to the intellectual abilities, knowledge, skills and attributes that a graduate from this programme should possess. To attain the aim of developing all-round students with professional competence, the programme outcome statements are encompassed in the following two categories of learning outcomes. Category A: Professional/academic knowledge and skills On successful completion of the programme, a student will have shown that he or she can 1. Apply fundamental principles of mathematics, science and engineering to identify, formulate

and solve practical problems in the areas of electrical engineering and related disciplines. 2. Design and conduct experiments with appropriate techniques and tools; and interpret and

analyse the data. 3. Design a system, component or process according to given specifications and requirements in

the areas of electrical engineering and related disciplines. 4. Identify constraints, other than technical considerations, which may influence engineering

problems, systems or projects. 5. Be able to keep abreast of developments in electrical engineering and related disciplines and

be aware of the need of lifelong learning. 6. Appreciate and understand the ethical, managerial and social responsibilities of a professional

engineer. Category B: Attributes for all-roundedness On successful completion of the programme, a student will have shown that he or she can 1. Communicate effectively via graphic, numeric, verbal and written media with proficiency in

both English and Chinese. 2. Be able to reason critically and develop alternative views or solutions. 3. Work in multi-disciplinary teams with professional interpersonal skills.

4 Curricula The time-tabled student hours for each subject and the type of activity (lecture [Lt], tutorial [Tu] and laboratory [Lab]) are given in the Tables 4.1.1-4.1.3. The abbreviations used in these tables are: AF Accounting and Finance AMA Applied Mathematics BSE Building Services Engineering CBS Chinese & Bilingual Studies CSE Civil & Structural Engineering EE Electrical Engineering ELC English Language Centre ENG Engineering Faculty GEC General Education Centre IC Industrial Centre ISE Industrial and Systems Engineering MM Management and Marketing In general, a normal student in the BEng (Hons) programme must complete 32, 40 and 27 credits in Levels 2, 3 and 4, respectively as shown in the typical progress patterns in Tables 4.2.1 to 4.2.4. In other words, a student must complete a total of 99 credits, in addition to the credits earned in IC training and WIE and the requirements on languages and co-curricula activities, before graduation. For those students who opt for the “Major in Electrical Engineering”, students are required to complete 81 credits in prescribed subjects, and 18 credits in a Minor programme, before they are qualified to graduate. Subjects are referenced by a Departmental prefix (e.g. EE corresponds to Electrical Engineering) followed by a reference number. Each subject is also categorised as non-deferrable (Non-Def), deferrable (Def) or Elective. In the reference numbers, the first digit (i.e. 2, 3 or 4) indicates the level of the subject. ‘Non-def ’ are those subjects which form the backbone of the vertical integration must be taken by every student in the prescribed semester, unless prevented from doing so due to non-compliance with prerequisites. ‘Def ’ are those subjects which must be satisfactorily completed before the student becomes eligible for an award but the timing of the subject is determined by the student. Tables in Section 4.1 show the times (semesters) in which these subjects are recommended to be taken if the programmes are to be completed in the minimum time. ‘Electives’ are those subjects which are optional. Electives give students choices in composing their study programme. All elective subjects are deferrable.

4.4 Work-Integrated Education and Summer Practical Training Work-Integrated Education (WIE) is introduced as a University exercise. It aims to prepare students for the realities of workplaces, develop students’ ability to learn in non-academic surroundings, allow students to assess their own strengths and weaknesses in a real working settings and develop students’ critical thinking and problem solving capabilities. Summer Practical Training (EE3502) normally takes place during the summer at the end of Year Two. Students are required to undertake a minimum of 6 weeks (3 training credits) of summer training, of which at least 2 weeks (1 credit) are of valid WIE activities as recognised by the University. WIE activities may include placement, employment or attachment relevant to the context, knowledge and skills of the Programme. The Preferred Graduate Development Programme (PGDP) organised by the Student Affairs Office (SAO) of the PolyU is one of the main sources of placement opportunities for students locally and in the Mainland China as well as in overseas. There is no requirement on the WIE activities being paid jobs. Any payment by employers is completely at the employers’ discretion. Typical examples of WIE activities are as follows: Full-time placement in a suitable organisation as part of a sandwich programme. Summer placement in a suitable organisation participating in the Preferred Graduate

Development Programme. Relevant placement as student helpers in PolyU administrative departments and the

Industrial Centre. Assisting in PolyU activities that have an external collaboration or service component

such as, Innovation and Technology Fund projects, RAPRODS projects, IGARD projects, high-level consultancy projects, collaborative research projects that were undertaken with external organizations, jobs undertaken by the Industrial Centre as a service for an external organization.

Placement within the IAESTE (International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience) Programme in which the student is attached to a workplace abroad during the training.

The student works on his final-year degree project which involves an industrial partner or external client. The student need not be placed in the company but make frequent visits to ensure that the project will meet the specifications required by the company/client.

In order to ensure that students have useful experience, the summer practical training must be suitably chosen and properly organised. Students are required to initiate and formulate a training proposal or learning contract to indicate the expected work-based learning experiences, as well as a learning portfolio to review their achievements and intended learning outcomes. Accordingly, the WIE officer will coordinate the following learning support activities: (I) Orientation

To allow sufficient time for the formulation of training proposals and/or learning contracts, students should start their preparatory work by the commencement of the second semester of their second year study. In the orientation meeting, students will first learn the basic requirements of a good proposal in terms of learning outcomes and then, the basic skills in undertaking practical training.

Information on search techniques to find national/international work-base employment,

attachments etc.



18

Life skills to be successful in the workplace Develop a positive attitude to work-based learning Planning and scheduling for successful completion of assessment instruments Consolidation of Training Proposal and/or Learning Contract Consideration of taking this chance for the preparation of Final Year Project

Students are required to submit their practical training proposals and learning contracts by end of June.

(II) Progress Monitoring

During the practical training, students are required to maintain a weekly training journal to identify their progress of their training. If applicable, site visits will be arranged by the supervisor during the practical training.

(III) Learning Evaluation

After returning from the practical training, students are required to submit a learning portfolio which should cover all periods of practical training. The learning portfolio is expected to demonstrate development of practical and professional skills through technical experience and application of theoretical knowledge. Development of skills in dealing with people, and communication skills are part of the subject learning outcomes. The student should be able to present the learning portfolio to prospective employers, as a complement to their degree. Learning Portfolio In writing the portfolio, the following should be observed: Preliminary Information: A contents list, abstract and employment details should

precede the main learning portfolio. The abstract should be a summary of the portfolio and comprise about 300 words on one page. The employment details should set out names of employing organisations, method of obtaining employment, specific periods of employment, and nature of appointments (eg. trainee engineer etc.). Also required are details of job locations, name, phone number and designation of immediate superior (for possible contact by the course coordinator), projects in which the student was directly involved, and their degree of responsibility.

Content: The major portion of the portfolio should be set out as a technical report, divided into suitable sections, and with an introduction to each major or different aspect of work. Students need to report on all projects listed in the employment details. Noteworthy technical details of projects in which the student was directly involved, or of projects which the student observed, should also be included. These may include investigation, feasibility, design, management, commissioning or operational aspects etc. Students should openly discuss aspects of the work they have performed or observed and indicate their involvement in their work throughout the text. To be able to produce an accurate and comprehensive portfolio it is recommended that students keep a diary, along with photographs and any other information regarding their work. This diary will not be assessed; it will however be helpful in writing the final portfolio. All project data and information must be cleared by the employers for confidentiality prior to its incorporation in the portfolio. It is generally advisable to avoid all sensitive information related to the employment by limiting the contents to the general or public aspects of each specific project. References should be made in the text to books, technical papers, standards etc., used during the training period and should be listed. Finally, a conclusion should include



19

comprehensive comments on the type and value of experience gained, and how this relates to the student’s future professional career.

A student will be given a PASS grade only if he/she meets the following requirements with satisfactory performance: 1. Fulfilment of at least 6 weeks of summer practical training for full time students or 44

weeks for students taking the sandwich mode option, with at least 2 weeks of valid WIE activities as recognised by the University.

2. Punctual submission of training proposals and/or learning contracts, training journal and learning portfolio.

An academic staff will be allocated to each student as his or her training tutor to certify that all of the above requirements have been satisfactorily met. The training tutor has the right to ask the student to re-submit the training proposal and/or learning portfolio after giving the student the necessary feedback. While the Department will be the responsible party to pursue WIE opportunities as vigorously as possible for the students so that they meet the graduation requirements, the students are expected to play their part in ensuring that they meet the WIE requirements for graduation and that they are employment worthy. 4.5 IC Training Besides the WIE training components, students are required to undertake training at the IC, which is equivalent to 8 training credits. The training is scheduled partly during term time of Year One and partly in the summer at the end of Year One. The students will not pay any training fee, nor receive any stipend. IC training is however not parts of WIE activities. 4.6 Language Exit-Tests All students are required to sit for the Graduating Students’ Proficiency Assessments (GSLPAs) in both Chinese and English before graduation. Except for those who are given exemptions from attempting the GSLPAs, students who have not taken both of the GSLPAs shall not be eligible for graduation. Students who have been waived of the Chinese language requirement during their admission to the University shall be given exemption from sitting for the Chinese GSLPA (both written Chinese and Putonghua). Nevertheless, they will NOT be precluded from sitting for the Chinese GSLPA if they wish to do so, but it will be entirely on a voluntary basis. Chinese/English Language Enhancement Programmes (LEPs) will be prescribed to individual students by the Department of Chinese and Bilingual Studies (CBS) and/or English Language Centre (ELC) of the University upon their admission. The students are expected and encouraged to complete the LEPs but non-completion will not affect the students’ eligibility for graduation. All students are strongly encouraged to make full use of the facilities and services provided in the CBS and ELC to improve their language proficiency throughout the course of the programme.

4.7 Co-curricular Activities PolyU aspires to develop all its students as all-round graduates with professional competence, and has identified a set of highly valued graduate attributes as the learning goals for students. While many of these graduate attributes can be developed through the curricular activities of this programme, some (including global outlook, interest in local and international affairs, interpersonal skills, sense of social and national responsibility, cultural appreciation, and leadership, etc.) are primarily addressed through co-curricular activities offered by faculties, departments, and various teaching and learning support units of the University. Students are encouraged to make full use of such opportunities to develop these attributes. All students admitted on and after 2005/06 are required to participate in at least one non-credit bearing co-curricular activity during their study period, which is a mandatory requirement of general education for graduation. Starting from the 2008/09 entry cohort of full-time undergraduate degree students, a minimum of 6 hours’ participation in co-curricular activities is required. The co-curricular activities should be non-credit bearing, and they aim at rendering additional values and helping students to broaden their horizons and inspiring them to actualize all-round development outside the classroom. Activities like Complementary Studies Programme, Leadership and Competence for Success Programme, Physical Education Programmes, Personal Development Programmes, hall education programmes, pre-placement training or career training organised by the Student Affairs Office (SAO), seminars and lunch talks by prominent speakers, study tour, exchange activity offered or organised by Faculties, academic Departments or supporting units, cultural appreciation programme, and any other activities in a variety of forms that the Department consider essential as part of the overall requirement of general education will be counted as co-curricular activities. Students will be considered as having fulfilled the requirement if they have participated in any one of these co-curricular activities. However, summer attachments, internships, mentorship programmes, community service and Work-integrated Education activities forming part of the formal programme curricular will not be counted as co-curricular activities. Students’ participation in co-curricular activities will be recorded in the Co-curricular Achievement Transcript (CAT) administered by the SAO. Further information is available at the website: http://www.polyu.edu.hk/sao/cca/. 5. Management and Operation 5.1 Administration The daily operation of the programme, such as General administration of admission, registrations, student records, preparation for Board-of-Examiners meetings and documentations, is overseen by the Programme Leader and the Administrative Officer and fully supported by the General Office of the Department. All enquiries regarding registration and general administration from students on the programme should be made to the General Office as the first contact point.



21

The Departmental Programme Committee, in which the Head of Department and the Programme Leaders of all programmes offered by the Department are members, discusses and reviews the programme structure, syllabi content, high-level integration and future directions of the programme. The Departmental Learning and Teaching Committee advises on matters related to teaching methods and learning quality and cultivates the positive mentality toward teaching and learning among teaching staff and students. WIE/Career Liaison Officer and Student-Exchange Coordinator are appointed by the Department to provide students with advice and assistance. 5.2 Class Tutors and Personal Tutors While the Programme Leader is available for the operation of the programme, general enquiry and counselling, Class Tutors and Personal Tutors are in place to offer more personal contacts and to look after students’ need. As the ‘Year’ concept does not always apply in a credit-based system and the boundaries between years may become vague as a result of credit transfers/exemptions, the Class Tutors are responsible for the general welfare of the students progressing through the three years of study according to the normal study pattern. A Class Tutor may thus look after students at different years of study. Students may seek help from Class Tutors on general enquiry, subject selection and academic counselling at the respective years. From 2003, a Personal Tutor, usually an academic staff member, is assigned to each newly admitted student and he/she will be with the student till graduation. Personal Tutors provide continuous and individual counselling and help guide the students through various difficulties, if any, which might affect their studies. The scope of counselling may sometimes go beyond academic matters. 6. Admission, Registration and Assessment The admission, registration and assessment arrangements described below are in accordance with the University policies and regulations for credit-based programmes which lead to an award of the University, except where the Senate decides otherwise. 6.1 Admission/Registration Students are normally admitted into the programme via the joint admission scheme (JUPAS) on a yearly basis. Non-JUPAS applicants are also considered on their academic merits, as well as non-academic achievements. 6.2 Credit Transfer/Subject Exemption Students may be allowed to have credit transferred or be exempted on subjects from recognised previous study. Credits transferred and subjects exempted normally do not carry grades. Decisions regarding granting or rejecting a subject credit transfer or exemption are entirely with the subject-offering departments. Students who have completed an approved student exchange



22

programme may be granted a block transfer of the equivalent number of credits that have been successfully completed. In cases that credit transfer is accompanied with grade, the actual grade as approved will be used in calculating the GPA/WGPA. The Department will not approve more than 27 credits normally but special consideration will be given in certain cases, such as advanced-standing students, subject to the University’s guideline on maximum number of credits to be transferred (i.e. If the credits attained from previous study are from the PolyU, the total credit transferred should not exceed 67% of the required credits for the award. If the credits earned are from other institutions, the total credit transferred should not exceed 50%). Subject exemption may be granted when it has clearly been identified that a student has a priori knowledge of a subject (in terms of content, academic level and achievement). In cases where exemption is given, no credits for that subject will be given and the student is required to take another subject assigned in lieu of the exempted subject. The validity period of subject credits earned is 8 years from the year of attainment, i.e. the year in which the subject is completed. Credits earned from previous study should remain valid at the time when the student applies for transfer of credits; students should submit all applications for credit transfer at the point of admission, i.e. Year 1. 6.3 Subject Registration/Add-drop of Subjects Subject registration is carried out prior to the commencement of each semester. The timetables are then drawn up based on student’s choices. In cases of timetable clashes, students will be allowed to re-select a different subject. Students may add and drop subjects during the add/drop period scheduled for each semester. The University has a limit on the maximum study load that a student can take in a semester. For students admitted in 2005-06 or after, the maximum study load in a semester is 21 credits. Students should study the definitive programme document, the subject pre-requisite, co-requisite and exclusion requirements and the specified progression pattern, if any, of the programme before subject registration. It is the student’s responsibility to check if his/her subject registration will fulfil the graduation requirements. Students are allowed to take additional subjects before graduation to broaden their interest. The selection of additional subjects will be done during the add/drop period. Full-time students can take additional subjects from within or outside his/her programme curriculum. Grades obtained from the additional subjects from outside curriculum will only be counted towards the student’s GPA (Grade Point Average) but not towards the student’s GPA for award classification. Additional fees will not be charged for students paying a fixed tuition fee per semester but will be charged for students paying a credit fee. Students may apply for withdrawal of their registration on a subject after the add/drop period if they have a genuine need to do so. The application should be made to the relevant programme offering Department and will require the approval of both the subject lecturer and the host Department Programme Leader concerned (or an alternate academic staff authorised by the programme host Department). The application should be made to the Department no later than one month before the commencement of the examination period. For approved applications, the tuition fee paid for the subject will be forfeited and the withdrawal status of the subject will be



23

shown in the examination result notification and transcript of studies but will not be counted towards the calculation of GPA. A handling fee will be charged by the University. 6.4 Zero Subject Enrolment/Deferment of Study A student is not allowed to have zero subject registration in any semester without prior approval from the Department. Student failing to get prior approval for zero subject registration may be regarded as having withdrawn from the programme. All semesters in which the student is allowed to take zero subject enrolment will be counted towards the maximum period of registration. Students will be responsible for ensuring that they complete their studies within the maximum period of registration. A fee for retention of study place will be charged. Application for deferment of study is only considered under very extraordinary circumstances. Deferment periods will not be counted towards the maximum period of registration. No retention fee will be incurred. 6.5 General Assessment Regulations The University’s General Assessment Regulations (GAR) applies to this Programme. The specific assessment regulations are set out here, having been developed within the framework of the GAR. Students progress by credit accumulation, i.e. credits earned by passing individual subjects can be accumulated and counted towards the final award. A ‘level’ in a credit-based programme indicates the intellectual demand placed upon students and may characterise each subject with respect to its recommended sequencing within that programme. A ‘subject’ is defined as a discrete section of the programme which is assigned a separate assessment. The language of assessment shall be English, unless approval is given for it to be otherwise. 6.6 Principles of Assessment The prime purpose of assessment is to enable students to demonstrate that they have met the aims and objectives of the Programme, in particular that they have fulfilled the requirement of each subject and have, at the end of their study, achieved the standard appropriate to the award. Appropriate methods of assessment will be employed to achieve this purpose. Assessment will also serve as feedback to students. Students will be informed of their performance in the assessment so that they are aware of their progress and attainment. The ultimate authority in the University for the confirmation of academic decisions is the Senate, but for practical reasons, the Senate has delegated to the Faculty Boards the authority to confirm the decisions of Boards of Examiners provided these are made within the framework of the



24

General Assessment Regulations. Recommendations from Board of Examiners which fall outside these Regulations shall be ratified by the VP(AD) and reported to the Senate. 6.7 Assessment Methods Students’ performance in a subject is assessed by continuous assessment and/or examinations. Where both methods are used, the weighting of each in the overall subject grade is clearly stated. Continuous assessment may include tests, assignments, projects, laboratory work, field exercises, presentations and other forms of classroom participation. The contribution made by each student in continuous assessment involving a group effort is determined and assessed separately. Assessment methods and parameters of subjects are determined by the subject-offering Departments. At the beginning of each semester, the subject lecturer will inform students of the details of the assessments methods and criteria to be used within the assessment framework as specified in this document. 6.8 Progression/Academic Probation/Deregistration The Board of Examiners shall, at the end of each semester (except for Summer Term unless there are students who are eligible to graduate after completion of Summer Term subjects), determine whether each student is (i) eligible for progression towards an award; or (ii) eligible for an award; or (iii) required to be deregistered from the programme. If the Grade Point Average (GPA) of a student is below 2.0, he/she will be put on academic probation in the following semester. If the student is able to pull his/her GPA up to 2.0 or above at the end of the probation semester, the status of ‘academic probation’ will be lifted. The status of ‘academic probation’ will be reflected in the examination result notification but not in the transcript of studies. A student is referred to the Board of Examiners of the Programme with the probable consequence of being de-registered from the programme if he/she falls within one of the following categories: (a) the student’s GPA is lower than 2.0 for 3 consecutive semesters. (b) the student’s GPA is lower than 2.0 for 2 consecutive semesters and his Semester GPA in

the second semester is also lower than 2.0. (c) the student has exceeded the maximum period of registration for the programme. Notwithstanding the above, a student may be de-registered from the programme if his/her academic performance is so poor to the extent that the Board of Examiners deems that his/her prospect of attaining a GPA of 2.0 or above at the end of the programme is slim or the student is incapable of completing the programme at all.



25

In the event that there are good reasons, the Board of Examiners has the discretion to recommend that students who fall in categories (a) and (b) above to stay on the programme, and these recommendations should be presented to the relevant Faculty/School Board for final decision. Under the current procedures, a student can appeal against the decisions of Boards of Examiners to deregister him/her. If such an appeal was upheld by the Department/School concerned, the recommendation (to reverse the previous decision to deregister the student) should also be presented to the relevant Faculty/School Board for final decision. 6.9 Retaking Subjects Students may retake any subject for the purpose of improving their grade without having to seek approval, but they must retake a compulsory subject which they have failed, i.e. obtained an F grade. Retaking of subjects is with the condition that the maximum study load of 21 credits per semester is not exceeded. Students wishing to retake passed subjects will be accorded a lower priority than those who are required to retake (due to failure in a compulsory subject) and can only do so if places are available. The number of retakes of a subject is not restricted. Only the grade obtained in the final attempt of retaking (even if the retake grade is lower than the original grade for originally passed subject) will be included in the calculation of the Grade Point Average (GPA). If students have passed a subject but failed after retake, credits accumulated for passing the subject in a previous attempt will remain valid for satisfying the credit requirement for award. (The grades obtained in previous attempts will only be reflected in transcript of studies.) In cases where a student takes another subject to replace a failed elective subject, the fail grade will be taken into account in the calculation of the GPA, despite the passing of the replacement subject. 6.10 Appeal Against Examination Results A student may appeal against the decision of the Board of Examiners within 7 working days after the public announcement of the examination results. The appeal should be made to the Head of Department in writing. The Departmental Examination Officer will inform the student of the appeal results within 7 working days upon the receipt of all required information. Students may refer to the Student Handbook for more details on appeal procedures.

6.11 Grades, GPA and Award Classifications Assessment grades are awarded on a criterion-referenced basis. A student’s overall performance in a subject is graded as follows:

Subject grade

Short description

Elaboration on subject grading description

A+ Exceptionally Outstanding

The student’s work is exceptionally outstanding. It exceeds the intended subject learning outcomes in all regards.

A Outstanding The student’s work is outstanding. It exceeds the intended subject learning outcomes in nearly all regards.

B+ Very Good The student’s work is very good. It exceeds the intended subject learning outcomes in most regards.

B Good The student’s work is good. It exceeds the intended subject learning outcomes in some regards.

C+ Wholly

Satisfactory The student’s work is wholly satisfactory. It fully meets the intended subject learning outcomes.

C Satisfactory The student’s work is satisfactory. It largely meets the intended subject learning outcomes.

D+ Barely

Satisfactory The student’s work is barely satisfactory. It marginally meets the intended subject learning outcomes.

D Barely

Adequate The student’s work is barely adequate. It meets the intended subject learning outcomes only in some regards.

F Inadequate The student’s work is inadequate. It fails to meet many of the intended subject learning outcomes.

Table 6.11.1 Descriptions of Grades

‘F’ is a subject failure grade, whilst all others (‘D’ to ‘A+’) are subject-passing grades. No credit will be earned if a subject is failed. Each grade is assigned a numerical value as indicated in Table 6.11.2. At the end of each semester, the GPA will be computed to indicate the student’s performance up to and including the last semester. Exempted, incomplete and ungraded subjects for which credit transfer has been approved without assigning a grade, and subjects from which a student has been allowed to withdraw (i.e. those with grade ‘W’) will be excluded from the GPA calculation. Subject which has been given a ‘S’ subject code i.e. absent from examination, will be included in the GPA calculation and will be counted as ‘zero’ grade point. IC training credits are included in the GPA calculation.

Table 6.11.2 Grade Point Average System

* The overall GPA will be capped at 4.0 # For cases where students fail marginally in one of the components within a subject, the BoE can defer making a

final decision until the students concerned have completed the necessary remedial work to the satisfaction of the subject examiner(s). The students can be assigned an ' I ' code in this circumstance.

Subjects with the assigned codes I, P, L, U, M, W, Z, T will be omitted in the calculation of the GPA. A subject assigned code S will be taken as zero in the calculation. In order to graduate, a student must achieve a minimum GPA of 2.0, in addition to satisfying the programme-specific graduation requirements, such as IC training, WIE and exit language test. The awards will be classified based upon the weighted GPA (WGPA).

where Wi = weighting of between 0 and 1, to be assigned according to the level of the subject and the weighted GPA is capped at 4.0. In determining the classification of awards, the credits earned at Levels 2, 3 and 4 are weighted 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 respectively. Level 5 credits are also weighted 0.5. Not all subjects taken are included in the computation of the weighted GPA (WGPA). Training subjects and General



28

Education subjects are excluded. A student is eligible for award if he/she satisfies all the conditions listed below: (a) Accumulation of the requisite number of credits for the particular award. (b) Satisfying all the ‘compulsory’ and ‘elective’ requirements. (c) Satisfying the WIE and IC Training requirements. (d) Satisfying the residential requirement for at least one-third of the credits required for the

award to be completed under the current enrolment at the PolyU, unless professional bodies stipulate the otherwise.

(e) Having a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 or above at the end of the programme. (f) Having participated in a minimum of 6 hours’ co-curricular activities. (g) Having sat for GSLPA in Chinese (unless exception given) and English. (h) A pass in Foundation Mathematics (AMA106)* * It is only applicable to admittees who do not have a “pass” in the A-level or AS-level Mathematics subject(s)

and who have not been given credit transfer for the subject AMA201. These students are required to take a mandatory Mathematics Benchmark Test (MBT) prior to the commencement of their studies. Those who pass the MBT are exempted from this graduation requirement and they follow the normal study pattern. Those who fail or do not attend the MBT are required to take a non-credit bearing subject AMA106 “Foundation Mathematics”, which is a pre-requisite for AMA201. A pass in AMA106 “Foundation Mathematics” is thus a graduation requirement for such students.

Table 6.11.3 shows the guidelines for the classifications; these are meant to be guidelines for reference only, the Board of Examiners shall exercise its judgement in coming to its conclusions as to the award for each student, and where appropriate, may use other relevant information.

Honours degrees

GPA or Weighted GPA@

Guidelines

1st 3.7+ - 4 The student’s performance/attainment is outstanding, and identifies him as exceptionally able in the field covered by the programme in question.

2:i 3.2+ - 3.7- The student has reached a standard of performance/ attainment which is more than satisfactory but less than outstanding.

2:ii 2.3+ - 3.2- The student has reached a standard of performance/ attainment judged to be satisfactory, and clearly higher than the ‘essential minimum’ required for graduation.

3rd 2.0 - 2.3- The student has attained the ‘essential minimum’ required for graduation at a standard ranging from just adequate to just satisfactory.

@ Note: “” sign denotes ‘equal to and more than’; “” sign denotes ‘less than’.

Table 6.11.3 Degree Classification Guidelines

A Pass-without-Honours degree award will be recommended only under exceptional circumstances. When a student has demonstrated a level of attainment which is below the ‘essential minimum’ required for graduation with Honours from the programme but when he/she has nonetheless covered the prescribed work of the programme in an adequate fashion, while



29

failing to show sufficient evidence of the intellectual capability expected of Honours degree graduates. For example, if a student in an Honours degree programme has a GPA of 2.0 or more, but his WGPA is less than 2.0, he/she may be considered for a Pass-without-Honours classification. Any subjects passed after the graduation requirement has been met or subjects taken on top of the prescribed credit requirements for award shall not be taken into account in the grade point calculation for award classification. If a student passes more elective subjects (or optional subjects) than the requirement for graduation in or before the semester within which he/she becomes eligible for award, the elective subjects with higher contribution (with the exception of the additional subjects taken out of interest and not for satisfying the award requirements) shall be counted in the grade point average calculation for award classification (i.e. the passed subjects with lower contribution will be excluded from the grade point calculation), irrespective of when the excessive elective subjects are enrolled. 6.12 Aegrotat Award If a student is unable to complete the requirement of the programme for the award due to very serious illness, or other very special circumstances which are beyond his control, and considered by the Board of Examiners as legitimate, the Faculty Board will determine whether the student will be granted an aegrotat award. Aegrotat award will be granted under very exceptional circumstances. A student who has been offered an aegrotat award shall have the right to opt either to accept such an award, or request to be assessed on another occasion to be stipulated by the Board of Examiners; the student’s exercise of this option shall be irrevocable. The acceptance of an aegrotat award by a student shall disqualify him/her from any subsequent assessment for the same award. An aegrotat award shall normally not be classified, and the award parchment shall not state that it is an aegrotat award. However, the Board of Examiners may determine whether the award should be classified provided that they have adequate information on the students’ academic performance. 6.13 Compulsory Graduation A student must graduate as soon as the criteria for graduation in the programme are satisfied. That is, a student will be allowed to register for more credits than needed only if adequate credits for graduation have not yet been accrued. This requirement has been stipulated in order to ensure the most efficient use of the PolyU resources.

Appendix II

Foundation Year


AII - 1

1. Introduction Foundation programme was offered to non-local students, mostly from the Chinese mainland, as a preparatory study, in order to prepare them for their intended proper 3-year undergraduate programmes. The programme was a one-year study and each student was required to complete a total of 32 credits. The graduates directly entered the first year of studies of their chosen undergraduate programmes. From September 2005, the foundation study was merged into the programmes offered by individual departments who became the hosts. The foundation year then formed an integrated part of a 4-year undergraduate degree curriculum. Students in the foundation year with the Department are regarded as the year 1 students of the 4-year BEng (Hons) programme. 2. Programme Structure Duration A student normally takes four years full-time with an option of an additional year for sandwich. The maximum period of registration is eight years. Final Award The award is a Bachelor degree with honours in Electrical Engineering. Programme The students will complete 10 subjects, 30 credits, as well as 2 credits on the subjects of Foundation Year Seminars, in the first year, i.e. a total of 32 credits. There are 5 compulsory subjects (common to all non-local students) and another 5 subjects stipulated by the Departments. The typical foundation year study is as follows:

ENG1001 APSS184 ELC1004 AMA103

AP101 CBS2050*

Semester One Compulsory subjects Foundation Year Seminar I Understanding the Hong Kong Community English for University Studies I Foundation Mathematics I for Science and Engineering College Physics I Elementary Cantonese * Compulsory for non-Cantonese speakers. Cantonese speakers may choose one of the following subjects in lieu, subject to approval. GEC225 Exploration of the Cosmos GEC270 History of Hong Kong APSS185 Discovering Psychology

ENG1002 AMA104 ELC1005 AMA105

AP102

Semester Two Compulsory subjects Foundation Year Seminar II Foundation Mathematics II for Science and Engineering English for University Studies II Logic: Qualitative and Quantitative College Physics II


AII - 2

One of the following

subjects GEC230 APSS186 ELC1003

Elective subject Ecological Perspectives – The Challenge of Our Times Understanding Ethics in Daily Life Extended Writing Skills * Compulsory for non-Cantonese speakers. Cantonese speakers may choose the following subject in lieu, subject to approval. GEC274Appreciation of Chinese Art and Design

In the subsequent three years, the students follow the identical study pattern in the 3-year programme as described in the main content of this document. As a result, the students should finish a total of 131 credits, as well as fulfilling the training and language requirements, when they graduate. The 2010/11 Foundation Year students joining Year-1 of the Undergraduate programme in 2011/12 will follow the curriculum and associated regulations applicable to the 2011/12 cohort of students of the programme. Foundation-year Mentor The students in the foundation year are full members of the Departments. A departmental foundation-year mentor will be assigned to them. The class representative will be a member of the Student-Staff Consultative Committee. 3. Registration & Assessment The same set of regulations on registration and assessment, as stipulated in Section 6, applies. While the graduation requires the completion of 131 credits and the GPA calculation includes the results of all subjects throughout the four years, the WGPA calculation, which leads to award classification, excludes all subjects in the foundation year. In other words, the award classification only considers the students’ performance on the subjects taken in the normal 3-year programme.


Appendix III

Major Programme in Electrical Engineering


AIII - 1

With the growing demand of graduates having broad educational qualifications, in addition to those with specialised skills, the University is introducing degree programmes combining “Major” and “Minor” disciplines. In response to this, the Department of Electrical Engineering has been offering a Major in Electrical Engineering option for students starting from 2001/02 academic year. Starting from 2007 cohort, students taking this option must obtain 78 credits in the Major Programme in electrical Engineering and 18 credits from a minor programme. If the 18 credits taken are a free collection of electives in any combintation of disciplines in conjunction with a Major programme, these students will graduate with a Major only. For the Minor programme, at least 9 credits must be level 3 or above. In order to graduate, students should take 3 additional credits on a subject from level 1 to level 4 so that the total number of credits taken is 99, the same credit requirement as stipulated by the BEng programme in electrical Engineering. 1. Programme Requirement Students are required to complete the following 78 credits for graduation in the Major Programme in Electrical Engineering. They must include the following credits: (a) all first-year subjects in Electrical Engineering, except the business subject (30 credits); (b) all second-year subjects, except the business subject (30 credits); (c) the compulsory final-year subjects (15 credits); (d) one EE level-4 elective (3 credits) (e) all training credits. All subjects are in common with the BEng(Hons) degree in Electrical Engineering offered by the Department of Electrical Engineering. A student is eligible for award if he/she also satisfies the following graduation requirements. - Satisfying the WIE and IC Training requirements - Having a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 2.0 or above at the end of the programme - Having sat for GSLPAs in both Chinese and English - Satisfying the co-curricular activities requirements - A pass in Foundation Mathematics (AMA106)# ______________

# It is only applicable to admittees who do not have a “pass” in the A-level or AS-level Mathematics subject(s) and who have not been given credit transfer for the subject AMA201 stipulated in the curriculum. These students are required to take a mandatory Mathematics Benchmark Test (MBT) prior to the commencement of their studies. Those who passs the MBT are exempted from this graduation requirement and they follow the normal study pattern. Those who fail or do not attend the MBT are required to take a non-credit bearing subject AMA106 “Foundation Mathematics”, which is a pre-requisite for AMA201. A pass in AMA106 is thus a graduation requirement for such students.

Semester Two Society and the Engineer One EE level-4 elective An additional subject of 3 credits (any subject from level 1 to level 4) (2 subjects from the Minor Programme)

3. Professional Recognition Students who wish to take the major/minor option should note that the Major programme may not meet the academic requirements for Graduate Membership from the professional institutions, such as The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers. 4. Admission and Registration Same as in Full-time BEng (Hons) Degree Programme in Electrical Engineering 5. Award Classification For students who have completed a Major and a Minor programme or a Major programme combined with free electives, their award classification will be based on both their “Major GPA” and “Minor GPA”. “Major GPA” is derived based on all subjects of the Major programme plus the University mandatory subjects in general education. The “Major GPA” is weighted and the level weightings are the same as set for the full degree from which the Major programme is developed. The mechanism for deriving the “Major GPA” is same as that for the GPA for award classifications of students on the single-discipline programme, except that there will be fewer subjects to be counted for the “Major GPA” due to the difference in the curriculum between a Major programme and a single-discipline programme. “Minor GPA” is derived based on the 18 credits of Minor study (either a specific Minor or free combination of electives). “Minor GPA” is unweighted. The “Major GPA” and the “Minor GPA” will be presented separately to the Boards of Examiners for consideration.


AIII - 4

In order to be eligible for a particular award classification, a student should have comparable standard of performance in both his/her major and minor studies. In cases where the attainment of students in the minor study warrants the granting of one classification lower than that the students deserve for his major study, the Board of Examiners has the discretion to recommend the upper classification which reflects the performance on the major study better. This is based on the fact that the award parchment to be granted to students who enrol on a major programme will only state the award title for the major programme.
