Program concept
• The program is a two-year/two location program
- you spend first year at KU Leuven, 2nd year at Grenoble, Chalmers or
Dresden
- program consists of 120 ects-credits in total, from which 60 ects-credits
should be followed at each university.
- trajectories are defined at the selection meeting of the EMM Board based on
your own preference
• You can change your trajectory during the program:
- inform us as soon as possible
- Coordinator sends email to the Board members
- After approval by EMM-Board within 2 weeks, program coordinator informs
the EU-Commission
- No trajectory changes allowed after 15 November, unless with clear
motivation !
•
Be careful for Chalmers students:
- 2nd year in Chalmers: non-EU students have to pay 8000 Euro tuition fee, no
waivers possible for Chalmers !
- If you need more than 60 credits you will have to pay extra tuition (1/60 of
8000 Euro per extra credit) ! – ALSO FOR SCHOLARSHIP STUDENTS !
- There is a maximum quota for number of Chalmers students

Individual Study Program (ISP)
• Tool to select the courses for the current academic year (via
TOLEDO or KULoket)
• Linked to the assignment of exam moments (IES) – see later
Individual Study Program (ISP)
• Each student has to select his individual study program in
KULoket/Toledo
• You should select min 25 and max 66 credits, exceptions depending
on your cumulative study efficiency (see later)
• All courses are visible, you can group/select the courses per
educational phase (you will be in phase 1 !)
• Courses of specialisation options or majors only visible if
registered, you should/can still select/change your option until 30/11,
contact student administration and program director asap !
• Compulsory courses will already be pre-selected and exam dates are
assigned !
• Individual exam schedule (IES) is linked to your ISP (see later) ! Read
the guidelines !
• ATTENTION ! If you select courses in your ISP you will have to
pass them in order to pass the program, even if you have passed
more than 120 credits (exceptions for EMM students, see later).
ISP = contract commitment !!!!!

Individual Study Program
EMM students
• All courses (KUL and 2nd year locations) will be visible in ISP:
this academic year select only the K.U. Leuven courses
next academic year re-register in KU Leuven, and select the 2nd
year courses !
• Exception: Lecture series: runs over both years, but evaluation is in
year 2, so select it in year 2 only !
Standard or flexible trajectory
You choose yourself which courses you follow when and how
many credits you take per year or semester !
Two possibilities:
1) Pre-defined model trajectory (only courses from your
phase)
-
Guaranteed lecture and exam schedule
Balanced spread over the semesters
Indication of education phase (1 or 2) and sem (1 or 2)
Decision on pass/fail taken at the end !
Advise to follow model trajectory as much as possible !
2) Indivualized trajectory (courses from both phases)
-
not following the model trajectory
follow courses from different phases
check order of enrolment information (i.e. prerequisite) !
In case of re-registrations of failed courses
Decision on pass/fail taken at the end !
34
Standard of flexible trajectory
Recommended to choose Standard trajectory as much as possible
to avoid problems with schedules etc.
Course prerequisites and progress
condition (Order of enrolment)
• Course prerequisites:
- Strict condition: credits for course A should have been obtained
before you can select course B
- Flexible condition: course A should have been followed (but not
passed) before you can select course B
- Simultaneous condition: course A and course B should be followed
at least simultaneously
• Progress condition:
- You should have obtained x credits before you can select course C:
• Nanomaster: 48 ects to start Master thesis and/or internship !
• In some cases I can overrule these prerequisites, only if
motivated (e.g. prerequisite of Bachelor degree)

Exam periods and Individual
exam schedule (IES)
•
At K.U. Leuven you have always two exam chances for each course
•
There are 3 examination periods:
-
Jan.11 – Jan 30 : 1st semester courses
June 6 – June 25 : 2nd sem courses + evt. 2nd chance for 1st sem courses (EMM
only)
Aug. 9– Sep 3 : 2nd chance for 1st and 2nd sem courses
•
Exams can ONLY take place during these periods, do not make appointments
with teachers outside these periods !
•
most exam schedules will be completed in advance
so that you will know when you will have to do
exams for all the courses you take this year.
•
IES = tool to (automatically) assign or select
exam moments, and is automatically linked to
your ISP.
•
Check with your choice of ISP also your
exam schedule before you send the ISP !
51
After ISP: check your exam schedule
Exams and IES
1. Assignation period: 8-20 september
-
Exams for compulsory courses of your study phase are automatically assigned !
You can only check the schedule, but not change it.
ATTENTION ! If you deselect a compulsory course in your ISP in this period
and afterwards want to select it again your exam moment is gone, and you can
not register it anymore in this period !
2. Registration period: 21 september – 7 october
-
•
•
•
Your can now select and register exam moments for all non-compulsory courses and for
compulsory courses of another study phase
You can also change already assigned exam moments for compulsory courses to another date
in order to avoid possible conflicts with other exam moments for electives !
The exams for courses without a schedule at this moment, will be organized in
agreement with the teacher.
Only send your ISP when exam schedule is complete !
For exams of the third examination session (august-september) you have to
register beginning of july (deadline: 15 july):

Exam formats, scoring and
feedback
•
Default format: oral examination with written preparation: after you
got the questions, you prepare the answers. Then you are called by the professor
and you clarify and discuss these answers with the professor.
•
Dont let you surprise ! – We will organize a dummy exam to test yourself !
•
Professors should explain exam format well in time ! If he/she did not: ASK !
Formats are also available in the program book
•
Courses are scored on a total scale of 20 points, percentage is weighted sum of
scores of all courses !
•
After each examination session: scores will be made available on KU Loket, and a
session will be planned with program director to discuss your results and what to
do next !
•
You are allowed/encouraged to contact the Professor to ask for feedback after the
exams: what did I do right/wrong ?
54
Problems during exams
• Exam dates can only be changed in exceptional situations (e.g. illness),
and ONLY by the ombuds person after consulting with the teacher
• If you cannot attend an exam
•
ALWAYS inform the faculty secretary (Isabelle Benoit) and (one of) the
ombuds persons (Devin Verreck and Dimitrios Andrikopoulos) beforehand !
-
-
Inform the teacher in time that you will not attend the exam !
Absence on a fixed examdate is ONLY allowed based on clear motivation
(illness, accident, personal problems), NOT on study related reasons (not ready
to do exam).
Unregister your exam in the IES system
If you are absent without reason or notice you loose your exam chance
• Ombudsperson is available for helping you with problems (conflicts,
schedule, illness, etc.): Devin Verreck, Dimitrios
Andrikopoulos !
Our mission is to:
 Ensure the university rules are followed by both students and professors/assistants;
 Safeguard that all students are treated equally.
What do we do?
 We answer questions about the exam rules and student services;
 We move an exam moment in case of serious illness or other unforeseen
circumstances.
-We always need some proof, usually a doctor’s note.
-ALWAYS notify us if you need to reschedule an exam moment!
-SIGNAL YOUR PROBLEM IN TIME, moving exam moments is a slow procedure
If you feel you are being treated unfairly by the university or the professors/assistants, contact
us.
What we do NOT do?
 We are NOT responsible for your ISP which should be discussed with your
program director (Prof. Guido Groeseneken or Prof. Marc Heyns).
 We do NOT answer questions related to the content of courses.
 We do NOT make the exam schedules.
 We do NOT optimize exam schedules without a valid reason.

Fraude and plagiarism
ATTENTION: (attempts to) fraude during an exam is strongly penalized !
What is considered fraude ? Some examples:
 use smart phone, cell phones, notebooks etc. during the exam to lookup exam relevant
information
 pass notes, texts etc. to another student during an exam without permission from
supervisors
 write key words or formulas on your arm in in your hand
 have course notes, books, handouts open during a closed book exam
 copy/paste text from public sources into own reports without proper referencing
Possible sanctions:






An invalid exam: the student needs to retake the exam
An appropriate mark or zero for the assignment or the examination in question
No marks for some or any of the examinations during the examination period in question
Exclusion for one or more course units. The student receives a zero for the course units in question
and will only be able to retake an examination in the next academic year
Exclusion for a programme of study.
Loss of the right to enrolment in the next academic year or the two next academic years.

Retake exams
•
When you fail a course in the January or the June session you can do a retake in
the August session !
•
When you do retake exam in August for a failed course: you keep your highest
score from the two chances (only within one academic year )
•
When you pass the course you cannot do a retake to increase your score !
•
You can send motivated request for permission by the faculty to do retake
exams of sem 1 courses in the June session, but only for special reasons
(should be motivated and exceptional !)
•
EMM students are allowed to take second chance
exams in the June session to allow a smooth transition
to 2nd year university, BUT it is advised to do this only
if the number of exams is limited to a few (1 to 3 max) !
They have to ask permission as well !

Common scoring system
for EMM Nano students
• all courses of the program, including the master thesis, are scored in
a common scoring system.
• 1st year is initially scored in KUL scoring system, conversion for 1st
year scores is done in October of the second year
• local academic coordinator of each institution is responsible for the
conversion and delivery of the examination scores to the program
coordinator at K.U. Leuven
• common grading scale in 6 categories from
8 to 20, using the conversion table (next slide)
•scores and the ECTS credits on each course unit
are stored in the ICTS system of K.U.Leuven

Pass/fail criteria and CSE for
local program
• Student passes the program if he passes for every part of the program
(min 10/20)
• There is Zero-tolerance, i.e. you cannot fail any registered course,
even if you have already 120 ects. Elective courses can be changed in
the second year.
Only exception: if you fail 1 course with 9/20 (but not the master thesis)
and have min 68% in total you will still pass the master !

• The cumulative study-efficiency is used for:
- Re-registration (see next slide): > 50%
- Number of credits you are allowed to take in the next phase:
• CSE>70%: unlimited number of credits can be taken (in the 2nd year)
CSE<70% max 66 credits can be taken in the 2nd year.
First year max 66 credits only !
CSE and re-registration
• If you fail a course twice: ter-registration is allowed if
CSE>50%, if CSE<50%: you are refused to register for 1
academic year for the course.
• If you fail a course 3 times: quater-registration is NOT
allowed: you are refused to register for 3 academic years
for the course.
• Deviations on the refusal can be possible by Director
Student Administration, based on special individual

• Exams take place in the sessions organized by the local partner
university, according to the rules of the university.
• The ects-credits are gained for the course if you pass the exam,
according to the rules of the local university (can be different for
each university)
• If you obtained more than 60 ects-credits, credits can only be
transferred to the next year if the excess represents a full course.
• Students who do not pass the exam of the course, can get 1 or more

will have to pay extra tuition fee (1/60 of 8000 Euro per extra credit !)
- Fundamental and compulsory/core courses cannot be failed ! You
will have to come back to KU Leuven next year to do re-takes (at your
