CREDITS and GRADING SYSTEM

A set number of credits are granted for each type of course (classes, project or professional thesis).

To receive credits, students need to take an examination and obtain at least 10/20. The grading scale for the courses is as follows:

 

ECTS EURECOM
A+ 18-20
A 16-18
B 14-15
C 12-13
D 11
E 10
F, Fail 0-9

 

If your grade is minimum 10 and above, you get the maximum number of credit alloted to the course. Grade 0 to 9.5 means you have not passed the examination and you do not get any credit. Examinations can be retaken during a specific period.
The final grade of the course can be based on a final examination, or it can be based on a combination of a final examination and course work. At the beginning of each course, professors explain how students will be evaluated. Students have to register to each specific course at the beginning of each term to be able to take the examination. All information will be delivered during the "Welcome Day" before the start of each term.
