Exams

Most courses are assessed by a written examination at the end of the course. The exams should be evaluated by the lecturer within 2 weeks

There are certain rules concerning examinations, set out by the University Law and the regulations of each university. Violation of these rules is considered a serious offence and will be punished with failure to complete the course in question, a warning by the Rector, and in serious cases, suspension from the university.

The instructions and regulations concerning examinations are:

  • register according to the instructions (there are seven days between the last registeration day and the examination day, by using NettiOpsu )
  • go to the examination in time, no admittance 15 minutes after the examination has begun
  • no books, notes or other materials are allowed at the examination, unless specifically mentioned by the lecturer
  • it is allowed to use a calculator which is not capable of symbolic calculation or graphical  operations
  • it is allowed to use the equation form offered by the department
  • talking to other students is strictly forbidden during the examination
  • copying answers from other students is strictly forbidden during the examination
  • you may not leave the examination hall until half an hour has passed from the beginning of the examination
  • if you need to leave the examination room temporarily during the examination, you must have the permission of the supervisor

The results for completed study units of students of the University of Turku are recorded in 'OPSU', the University's computerized student register.
