Support for students with disabilities
Students at KTH with a permanent disability can get support during studies from Funka:
INLA - Assignment, 1.0 credits, Grading scale: P, F
LABA - Laboratory work, 1.0 credits, Grading scale: P, F
TENA - Written exam, 4.0 credits, Grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Ethical approach
All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
