Assessment

The assessment criteria for the different components of the PGD are specified in the description of each component. Grades are assigned on a 1-10 scale, 10 being the highest grade possible and 5.5 being the pass-grade.

The final grade for the course will be the mean of the final grades for each of the five modules, of the project task and the essay. In order for the student to be awarded the Diploma, the pass-grade of 5.5 must be obtained for each of the seven components of the programme (i.e. 5 modules, 1 design project task, 1 essay).
