The marking system
The performance of the student is documented by the ECTS-grading-system. The ECTS grading scale ranks the students on a statistical basis. Therefore, statistical data on student performance is a prerequisite for applying the ECTS grading system. Grades are assigned among students with a pass grade as follows:
| ECTS-Grade | Percentage | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| A | 90-100% | EXCELLENT - outstanding performance with only minor errors |
| B | 80-89% | VERY GOOD - above the average standard but with some errors |
| C | 70-79% | GOOD - generally sound work with a number of notable errors |
| D | 60-69% | SATISFACTORY - fair but with significant shortcomings |
| E | 50-59% | SUFFICIENT - performance meets the minimum criteria |
| F | 0-49% | FAIL- considerable further work required |
The inclusion of failure rates in the Transcript of Records is optional.

Comment: The exam is the crucial examination. However, the assignment and the participation in the forum should be considered in the final assessment, in particular when the student did not inequivocally pass the exam.
