Evaluation: Examinations

Examinations and course units will be evaluated alternately. During an examination cycle no course units will be evaluated.

Autumn Semester 2023 and Spring Semester 2024 – Evaluation of exams

Only written end-of-semester and session examinations will be evaluated.

• Surveys will open generally on the day of the exam at 17:00h.
• Participants are inivited to surveys based on resgistrations for examination not based on enrolements for course units.

Evaluation of course units upon request

Course units can be evaluated upon request during the evaluation cycle of examinations, in case they meet all three following requirements:

1. the average score a course unit had received in the previous evaluation is below a 3 for ‘general satisfaction’ and/or several other criteria;
2. and appropriate measures of improvement have been implemented and reported to the Rector;
3. and the course unit had no critical written end-of-semester examination in the last period of exam evaluations.

This principle applies to the basis questionnaires and to the department-specific questionnaires in a normal ETH semester.

New course units and course units of assistant professors can be evaluated upon request. If the request concerns a course unit with a written end-of-semester examination, the course unit will be evaluated instead of the end-of-semester examination, but only if the evaluation of the written end-of-semester examination concerned was not critical in the previous period.

Procedure

If you wish to have an evaluation regarding a course unit that fulfills the above mentioned requirements, please inform the contact person of your department before the 08th of April 2024.
