Write something like:
Communication technical Engineering  is a wonderfully wide-ranging subject and is well equipped to deliver. The emphasis of the program is the whole organism to which everything is related, be it the molecules that form proteins or communities of organisms in an ecosystem. The degree is popular - –or some it's’ the breadth of the subject that appeals, for others it's a path to specialization. All students have the opportunity to transfer onto our specialist degrees in Genetics, Zoology, and Ecology at the end of the first year.

Level 1 exposes students to the fundamentals of Biology, suitable for progression to all programs within the biology program group. Program-specific core topics are covered at Level 2 preparing for research-led subject specialist modules at Levels 3 and 4. The University Biology graduate is therefore trained to appreciate how research informs teaching, according to the University and School Mission statements.

At Levels 2, 3 and 4 students are free to choose more than half of their module credits with the proviso a range of modules are selected that reflect the complexity of mobile and wireless communication, through networks ensure the breadth of knowledge expected of a graduate with a technical engineering degree. This allows students to develop their own wide-ranging interests in communication. Decisions on what to study are made with input from personal tutors.

The research ethos is developed and fostered from the start via practical, which are either embedded in lecture modules or taught in dedicated practical modules, research seminars and tutorials. There is a compulsory field course in Level 1, which students must pass in order to progress into Level 2, and optional field courses in Levels 2, 3 and 4. At Level 4 all students carry out an independent research project, which may be a xx credit library or data analysis project, or a xx credit field or laboratory based project.

Academic tutorials are held at Levels 1 and 2 with the same tutor, who is also the personal tutor, providing continuity and progressive guidance. Level 1 and 2 tutorials include a number of workshops to teach skills, e.g. library use and presentation skills, followed by assessed exercises, e.g. essays and talks, as opportunities to practice these skills in a subject-specific context.

International years and Industrial placements are also offered and individual needs are discussed with the appropriate tutor and accommodated wherever possible.

  1. Credits, Grading and GPA

Credits

Alfurat Al-Awsat technical University (ATU) is following the Bologna Process with the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) credit system. The total degree program number of ECTS is 240, 30 ECTS per semester. 1 ECTS is equivalent to 25 hrs student workload, including structured and unstructured workload.

Grading

Before the evaluation, the results are divided into two subgroups: pass and fail. Therefore, the results are independent of the students who failed a course. The grading system is defined as follows:

 

                   GRADING SCHEME

Note:

 

 

 

Number Decimal places above or below 0.5 will be rounded to the higher or lower full mark (for example a mark of 54.5 will be rounded to 55, whereas a mark of 54.4 will be rounded to 54. The University has a policy NOT to condone "near-pass fails" so the only adjustment to marks awarded by the original marker(s) will be the automatic rounding outlined above.

 

Calculation of the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA)

  1. The CGPA is calculated by the summation of each module score multiplied by its ECTS, all are divided by the program total ECTS.

CGPA of a 4-year B.Sc. degree:

CGPA = [ (1st module score x ECTS) + (2nd module score x ECTS) + ……] / 240
