Further information for students

According to the degree regulations (section 18) “students must be present in the first contact session or
notify their teacher in charge if they cannot attend. If they fail to notify the teacher of their absence in the
first contact session, their enrolment will be rejected. Another student in the queue may be enrolled in the
study unit in the place of the absent student.” (Laurea degree regulations) In the case of online studies
the lecturer can also specify some other way than participation on an online meeting what is required

teacher of the study unit. ... A failed examination or other study attainment can be retaken twice. A
failure to attend an actual examination is considered to be one completion attempt.” (Laurea degree
regulations.)
