Appendix II Transitional Regulations
Article 1 Applicability
- Context
The Transitional Regulations apply to students who commenced their Bachelor’s
programme in the academic year of the cohort corresponding with the chapter title of
these Transitional Regulations. These regulations remain in force for those students
only, because the regulations are more favourable for those students. They do not
apply to students who commenced their Bachelor’s programme in a later academic
year. Students are expected to find out about possible modifications and how these
could affect them. Students may contact the Information Desk of the Education
Office with any questions, or submit questions via EleUM/Surfyourself (SYS).
- Modifications
If modifications which are to the detriment of the students are made to the
Education and Examination Regulations during the course of a programme, the Board
of Examiners is required to provide an (interim) arrangement in order to prevent
them from being disadvantaged.
If compulsory courses or components in the education programmes will be cancelled,
two resit examinations still have to be offered in the upcoming year. If electives are
cancelled, then no examination or resit will be offered.
- Subsidiary
Other than the substituted rule, all other rules of the above Bachelor Education and
Examination Rules 2013/2014 remain fully applicable.
- Interpretation of terms
The authority for the interpretation of terms in the first instance is the Board of
Examiners.
