OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT
1. Homework Assignments (best 2 out of 3):
· Top two scores out of the three homework assignment scores will be used for the final grade calculation.
· Will contain multiple questions requiring calculations / analysis / reflection.
· Will be posted on Blackboard on prescheduled dates, and will be due by 6:00 pm (PST) seven days after. For example, the assignment posted on a Friday will be due by 6:00 pm (PST) next Friday.
· Submission must be made via Blackboard, and MUST be in the form of a single MS-Word file / PDF file (as specified in the Homework Assignment), uploaded as an attachment with your response. Any other type of submission will receive zero points.
· The file name MUST include the course code, section number, homework assignment number, your last name, and your first name as exemplified below (do change the Section Number, FirstName, and LastName as appropriate). Files named differently will automatically face a penalty (a stern warning for the first offence, 5-point penalty for the second offence, 25-point penalty for each subsequent offence).
· Homework 1: DSCI303_Section1_HW1_FirstName_LastName.docx
· If you make multiple submissions for an assignment, only your last submission made before the deadline will be graded. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that the correct file is submitted, and that the file has uploaded successfully.
· Late submissions: One late submission (with up to six hours of delay) will face no penalty. Subsequent offences / submissions more than six hours late will automatically receive zero points regardless of the excuse.
· No make-up assignments will be offered.
2. Final Exam (1, optional):
· Offered only at the times specified by the University registrar, except for those with a pre-approved disability-related accommodation.
· May contain a mix of multiple choice questions and questions that require analysis / calculation / reflection.
· Cumulative, open book, and open notes (non-electronic).
· No electronic devices except a calculator will be allowed in the exam hall. If a student appears to be using any other electronic device during the exam, the student will be asked to leave right away, and will receive zero points for the final exam regardless of his actual performance.
