9-	Knows how to direct a scientific investigation

10-	Knows ethics of publication

Exam Regulations & Assesment & Grading

In Histology and Embryology master's program the evaluations are done by midterm and final exams. The addition of the 40% of the midterm exam and 60% of the final exam give the grade of the student. If necessary, make-up exams are applied. All exams are evaluated over 100 points and converted to letter grades by the system.
