Bachelor§ 1.2 - Aim of Programme, including any professional profile and specialisations
Cf. Uddannelsesbekendtgørelsen §§ 1-4
The Bachelor and Master’s programmes are independent research-based educational courses with a set amount of ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System) aiming to make the student qualified to independently perform professional functions based on knowledge and practical proficiencies in several subject areas. A subject area consists of a single subject or a group of related subjects within the natural sciences.
The aim of the Bachelor’s degree programme is to:
1.introduce students to the scientific disciplines of one or more subject areas, including the theory and methods of said area(s), so that the students gain a wide variety of specialised knowledge and competences
2.give students the academic knowledge as well as theoretical and methodical qualifications and skills required for them to independently identify, formulate, and solve complex problems within the relevant parts of the subject area(s)
3.give students the foundation needed to perform in several job functions and to qualify for enrolment in a Master’s degree programme
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
The BSc and MSc programmes in Computer Science deal with fundamental principles for computation and information processing, including how computer systems can be designed and programmed. The subject interfaces first and foremost with mathematics (especially discrete mathematics), within which many of the core areas’ models and methods lie, but also with the very wide range of applications of computer science, as well as with non-mathematical topics relevant to software development.
The emphasis of the subject is placed on principled methods, analytical approach and a high level of abstraction, so that the acquired knowledge is as widely applicable and has as long-term validity as possible. This weighting is also based on the view that abstraction is the best way to attack the complexity that characterises problems and systems in the IT field. The high level of abstraction distinguishes the degree in computer science from most other IT-related courses of study.
The main aim of the Bachelor programme in Computer Science is to educate undergraduates who have:
- basic proficiency in the field of computer science
- basic proficiency in relevant mathematical disciplines
- an in-depth knowledge of the methods pertaining to the subject’s core disciplines, at a level allowing them to independently apply these to specific issues
- qualifications aimed at an advanced research-based course of study
Learning outcome
The learning outcome for the programmes of the Faculty of Science is described in accordance with the Danish “Qualifications Framework for Higher Education” through three general categories:
- Knowledge: This category is related to the specific programme or the specific course and covers the level of comprehension and reflection within a subject area in relation to the terms, theories, methods and scientific problems of the area.
- Skills: This category is aimed explicitly at the performance of practical skills, professional ethics and responsibility.
- Competences: This category entails the graduate’s personal and independent application of knowledge and skills. These competences are universal, not limited to the individual programme or course. Instead, they include skills such as analysis and abstract thinking, an attitude for learning, the ability to participate in academic and interdisciplinary collaboration, communicative skills and the graduate’s ability to acquire new knowledge and structure his/her own learning.
§ 1.3 - Didactic and pedagogical basis
The didactic and pedagogical foundation of the programme is based on SDU’s leading principles about activating teaching and active learning. This is implemented in practical science by the application of the three-phase-model for teaching, the three phases being introduction, training and studying.
In the introductory phase the joint reference frame for theory, models and terms is established through the teacher’s use of varied teaching methods.
The training phase is utilised by the students to obtain their own experiences and to immerse themselves in the material through active work and dialogue with the teacher.
The study phase is a learning environment unaffiliated with the teacher and where the student independently acquires academic, personal and social skills in relation to an understanding of and immersion in the subject of science.
Content, standard and learning activities for the individual subjects within the first year of the Bachelor programme are planned in accordance with the requirements of the programme. The teachers responsible for courses which directly build on knowledge from the qualifying youth education will always be informed of the admission requirements and have access to information about the academic content of the central qualifying subjects from the youth education.
The form of examination for the specific courses is selected in consideration of several factors. There must be a clear coherence between the purpose, content, learning activities and examination of the specific course, so that the exam result of the specific course reflects how well the student fulfils the learning objectives of the course. Throughout the entire programme, a variation of forms of examinations is strived for across the different courses, so that the students are tested in the overall different types of knowledge, skills and competences which are represented in the Degree Qualifications Profile of the programme. This is to make sure that the student’s overall exam results reflect how well the student fulfils the learning objectives of the programme in its entirety.

§ 5 - Examination provisions
§ 5.1 - Programme passing requirements
The Bachelor’s degree programme will be completed when the student has obtained:
a) A grade of 02 or higher on all exams graded according to the 7-point grading scale
b) A “pass” grade on all exams which are given “pass”/”fail” grades
c) An “approved” grade on all exams which are given “approved”/”not approved” grades and
d) Approval of all exams which are approved through attendance of classes
§ 5.2 - Start of study exam
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 28
The university may decide that students must participate in and pass a start of study exam in order to continue the programme. The purpose of the start of study exam is to clarify whether a student has actually participated in the start of the programme. The exam is internal and will be evaluated with “Approved” or “Not approved”. The start of study exam will be conducted no later than 2 months after the start of the programme and the result must be given to students no later than 2 weeks after the exam. If a student does not pass the exam, they may do a re-exam which is conducted no later than 3 months after the start of the programme. Students have 2 exam attempts to pass the start of study exam.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
If a study start test is included in the programme this is stated in the recommended course of study. Further information about the study start test is given in the course description.
The study start test is held in connection with the start of studies in resp. September and February. Students have two exam attempts to pass the study start test. The second exam attempt is completed no later than three months after the start of the study programme.
If it can be documented that the student is or will be able to actively begin the education, it is the Study Board's practice to grant dispensation from the study start test in case of documented serious illness or similar documented illness in immediate family, or comparable documented personal circumstances who prevented participation in the offered exam attemps in the study start test.
The study board emphasizes that it is the purpose of the examination to clarify whether the student has actually begun the education. The assessment of whether it is possible to dispense with the study start examination does not only depend on the fact that an unusual circumstance can be documented that has prevented participation in the examination.
§ 5.3 - First year exam
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 29
In the programme regulations of the Bachelor’s degree programme, the university will determine which exams students must participate in before the end of the first year of study (the first-year exam).Requirements for the scope of the first-year examination may also be stated in ECTS points.
Students must pass the exams of the first-year exam before the end of their second year of study in order to continue the programme. The university may determine in the programme regulations that, in order for students to continue the programme, the first-year exam must be passed before the end of the first year of study.
The rules apply regardless of the number of exam attempts. However, the student must be able to take at least two examinations during the first year of study before the student can be discharged from the programme.
The university may provide dispensation from the established deadlines under exceptional conditions.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
Students must pass the first-year exam before the end of the first year of study in order to continue the programme even if a third exam attempt is not possible. In August, a third exam attempt for the first-year exam is conducted. However, there may be specific courses which only offer two exam attempts but this will be made clear in the recommended plan of study.
§ 5.4 - Spelling and writing skills
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 26
In the evaluation of Bachelor projects, Master’s theses and other longer written assignments, there will be a focus on the student’s spelling and writing skills. In the programme regulations, rules determine how much the student’s spelling and writing skills affect the overall evaluation of the exam project.
The university may provide students who have documentation of a relevant functional impairment with a dispensation.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
The evaluation of longer written assignments is mainly concerned with academic content. The student’s spelling and writing skills will have minimal impact on the evaluation unless it deviates considerably from normal academic writing. This rule may be overlooked if the student provides documentation of a relevant functional impairment.
§ 5.5 - Evaluation of examinations and tests
Karakterbekendtgørelsen §§ 9 og 10
The evaluation of a student’s performance must be in accordance with the academic objectives of the relevant subject or subject element (absolute grading). Grades may not be given in order to achieve a specific distribution of grades (relative grading).
The evaluation will be based on an overall assessment of how well the student achieves the objectives of the subject or subject element which are provided in the programme regulations of the programme.
The educational institution provides programme regulations which determine the learning objectives and criteria used in the assessment of individual courses, specific subjects or educational elements which are concluded with a final exam.
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen §2
The purpose of an examination or test is to assess the extent to which the individual student fulfills the learning objectives set for the subject element.
The university determines learning objectives and criteria for assessing the goal fulfillment for the individual subject elements in the programme regulations, including course descriptions.
Cf. Karakterbekendtgørelsen §15
To pass a graded exam, the student must have obtained 02 or above or the assesment "Passed". Examinations which have been passed may not be retaken
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 10-11
The university provides programme regulations which determine wthether the examination is internal or external.
Internal exams or tests are assessed by one or more of the university's lecturers (examiners). External exams or tests are assessed by one or more of the university's lecturers (examiners) and at least one external examiner appointed by the
Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science
External exams or tests must cover the essential areas of the programme, including Bachelor's project, Master's thesis and Master's project. The external exams or tests must constitute at least 1/3 of the programme’s total ECTS credits (European Credit Transfer System). This does not apply to credit transfers.
Grades are given according to the 7-point grading scale, as a “pass” or “fail” grade or as an “approved” or “not approved” grade, cf. karakterbekendtgørelsen.
The university determines the form of assessment for the specific subject element in the programme regulations or in the course description. The “pass/fail” grade must not be used in more exams than what covers 1/3 of the programme’s overall ECTS credits. This does not apply to credit transfers, however.
Bachelor project, Master’s thesis and Master project are graded according to the 7-point grading scale
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
The learning objectives of a specific course establishes that the student will receive a 12 for an excellent performance which demonstrates a full achievement of the objectives of the course or course element with no or few flaws. The learning objectives can be found in the specific course descriptions.
§ 5.6 - Exam language
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 21
The exam or test will be done in the language the lectures of a specific course have been conducted in, unless the purpose of the activity concerns, fully or partially, the language skills of a particular language.
It is possible to conduct the exam in Swedish or Norwegian instead of Danish, unless language skills in Danish are part of the academic learning goals.
§ 5.7 - Forms of assessment
The student’s qualifications are assessed at examinations. The assessment may be based on:
a) a final oral exam
b) a final written exam
c) practical tests
d) one or more written or oral exams conducted during lectures
e) one or more assignments or reports or course work handed in for assessment in connection with lectures
f) study periods given a pass/fail grade at internal exams (portfolio)
g) participation in lectures, exercises, seminars or similar activities or a combination of two or more of items a – g
The choice of examination form for the specific course is made in accordance with several factors. In order for the final grade of the course to reflect to what degree the student has met the learning objectives, there must be a clear cohesion between the course’s objectives, content, learning activities and the examination of the course. Over the course of the entire programme, the aspiration will be to have a variation of examination forms in order to test the student in the different types of knowledge, skills and competences which are represented in the Degree Qualifications Profile of the programme. This is done so that the overall exam result of the student reflects how well the student achieved the learning objectives of the programme.
§ 5.8 - Ordinary exams
Ordinary exams will typically be conducted at the end of a course in the fall and spring semesters respectively. The exams of the fall semester courses are typically held in January and the exams of the spring semester courses are typically held in June. The accurate dates of the examinations can be found in the exam plan. The dates of ordinary exams which are conducted as part of the course’s lectures will be announced on itslearning.
Withdrawal from exams is not possible after registering for a course. If the student does not participate in the exam, they use an exam attempt. If the student is prevented from participating because of an illness, they need to submit a doctor’s note to the Student Services (via SPOC). If the doctor’s note is accepted, the absence will not count as a used exam attempt. For more information, see SDU’s general exam rules on the university website.
§ 5.9 - Reexams
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 12
The university may deviate from the stipulated examination or test form in a re-examination.This does not apply, however, for Bachelor projects or Master’s theses. It may be established in the programme regulations that the reexam has another form and/or evaluation than the ordinary exam. including the criteria for when the alternative examination or test form will be used.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
A reexam is conducted for students who failed, were absent or were ill at the preceding ordinary exam. Therefore, the reexam still requires that the student has participated in the course’s lectures and readings.
The dates of reexams which are conducted as part of the course’s lectures will be announced on itslearning.
For all courses which the Study Board for Science is responsible for, with the exception of the Bachelor project and the Master’s thesis, the exam and censorship at a reexam may be different from the ordinary exam. It will appear from the course description if there is another form of examination for re-examinations and which criteria cause the alternative examination form.
Withdrawal from exams is not possible after registering for a course. If the student does not participate in the exam, they use an exam attempt. If the student is prevented from participating because of an illness, they need to submit a doctor’s note to the Student Services (via SPOC). If the doctor’s note is accepted, the absence will not count as a used exam attempt. For more information, see SDU’s general exam rules on the university website.
If the faculty announces that a course is cancelled, it will also be announced when the student at the latest must use their third exam attempt..
§ 5.10 - Exam attempts
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen 4
A passed exam or test cannot be retaken.Students have 3 attempts to pass an exam or test. A Student has used an exam attempt if the student does not meet the stipulated examination requirementsThe university may provide additional attempts under exceptional circumstances. When assessing whether there are any exceptional circumstances, the university must not include the student’s academic aptitude
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen 12,3.
A student who is having their participation in a course assessed for the second time, may request to take an exam instead. However, the university may establish in the programme regulations that this does not apply to the start of study exam. Course participation which includes practical exercises cannot be replaced by an exam.
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 28
The university may decide that students must participate in and pass a start of study exam in order to continue the programme. The purpose of the start of study exam is to clarify whether a student has actually participated in the start of the programme. The exam is internal and will be evaluated with “Approved” or “Not approved”.
The start of study exam will be conducted no later than 2 months after the start of the programme and the result must be given to students no later than 2 weeks after the exam. If a student does not pass the exam, they may do a re-exam which is conducted no later than 3 months after the start of the programme. Students have 2 exam attempts to pass the start of study exam.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
Students can apply for additional exam attempts through the Study Board for Science under exceptional circumstances. For more information, see the Study Board’s guide on dispensation. Students have two exam attempts to pass the Start of study exam
§ 5.11 - Requirements for exams
Cf. Eksamensbekendtgørelsen § 7
The university may in the programme regulations establish that the student is required to participate in lectures or submit written assignments, etc, as part of the lectures in order to be able to attend the exam of the relevant course.
Additional provisions of the Study Board:
If a course has prerequisite exams, these must be passed before the ordinary exam related to the prerequisite exam. If a student does not pass the prerequisite exam before the course’s ordinary exam, the student will not be able to participate in the exam and has used an exam attempt.
