BIO230 - Introduction to Computational Biology - Assessment (Fall 2023)

Instructor: Asscociate Prof. Vasilis J Promponas. vprobon@ucy.ac.cy

The final class grade results using several different assessment criteria, as follows:

Assessment criteria Weight
Attendance/Participation (AP) 5%
Homework (HW) 15%
Seminar (SE) 20%
Midterm Exam (ME) 20%
Final Exam (FE) 40%

Final Grade = 0.05*AP + 0.15*HW + 0.2*SE + 0.2*ME +0.4*FE

An alternative path (after approval of the instructor) includes pursuing an independent Computer Programming/Data Analysis project (PR), which can be assessed up to 40% of the total class grade (based on the additional workload of the assignment).

In this case, the final grade is computed as

Final Grade = x*PR + (1-x) * (0.05*AP + 0.15*HW + 0.2*SE + 0.2*ME +0.4*FE)

where x corresponds to the weight of the independent project that will be decided between individual students and the instructor, based on the workload of the assigned project.
