Dear Students! Welcome to the Genetics and Genomics course! In accordance with the Regulations for Studies and Examinations (RSE), we would like to inform you about the most important information for the successful completion of the course. If there are any changes, we will inform you on our website and via Neptun messages.
To obtain a signature:
Attendance at the exercises is compulsory and will be checked. More than three absences (regardless of the reason) will invalidate the semester. A valid semester is a condition for passing the exam. Practical absences may be made up during the current teaching week in parallel practical courses, after prior consultation with the practical teachers. It is not possible to make up missed practice. Students will be evaluated to get signature (validate the semester) by their supervisors (they can check their signature in Neptun from the first week of the examination period).
Midterm evaluation:
Twice during the semester, you will be given the opportunity to take a written test to measure your knowledge of the course material, on the 6th and 11th week of the practical. This will cover both theory and practical material. The written tests will be available on the Moodle interface, with 20-20 questions to be answered for 20-20 points (20 minutes).
Completion and passing the test is not a condition for the end-of-semester signature, therefore there is no possibility to make up or correct the test.
The result of the midterm counts towards the bonus points.
In the lectures, you will be asked 3 questions (Moodle test) related to the given topic, and you can also collect points (max 20 in total) for good answers. The lectures can score more than 20 points in total, but only 20 points will be taken into account for the evaluation.
Bonus points can be used for semifinal exam and competition invitations according to the following rule.
Anyone who reaches 45 bonus points during the semester:
Semifinal exam (colloquium) grade is awarded on the basis of:
The exam (time and place announced in Neptun) - 50-minute written test: 60 points. To pass the written exam: 50% (30 points) of the test score. Bonus points earned during the semester may be used for the exam. If the mid-term score reaches 45 points, the test is 45 points only and there are no questions in epigenetics and cytogenetics. Your score will start from 15 points to which you will add the points earned on the exam.
Semifinal exam (colloquium) assessment:
During the examination period from 21 May 2024 to 12 July 2024, a (written) colloquium in Genetics and Genomics will be taken via Moodle. Applications for the examination can be made only via Neptune, for free places, according to the deadlines indicated in the RSE.
The course material for Genetics and Genomics, and therefore also for the colloquium, is the eBook (see eBook tab) and the lectures and exercises. In the exam, in addition to reviewing the course material, synthesis of knowledge is required.
Plan your exam schedule carefully! Please note that it may take several working days to correct written test results and to administer the results. Therefore, if possible, please do not schedule your exams for the last week, as you may not be able to register in time for the next semester's courses. You can check your colloquium marks in Neptune and corrected test in Moodle. Students who do not appear for the exam despite having registered for the exam must provide written proof of their absence within 3 working days by sending a written document to the email address of the G&G tutor, otherwise they will be charged the fee for the unexcused absence.
