REGULAR EXAMINATIONS
Examination dates, hours, and places will be announced by the Mechanical Engineering Department.
MAKE-UP EXAMINATIONS
Make-up examinations may be given to those with valid excuses (i.e. medical report, ...) approved by the Mechanical Engineering Department.
If you are eligible to take any of the make-up examinations, you must contact the course instructor or the course assistant.
Make-up examinations may not be of multiple-choice type.
All make-up examinations will be given after the final.
Examinations
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 8
EXAMINATION RULES
• During the examinations you are only allowed to use pencil and eraser; when allowed calculators.
• Your mobile phones should be in your handbag, backpack, etc. or in your pocket.
• During the examinations, you will be given a question booklet and an answer sheet.
• Return both of them to the assistants before you leave the classroom.
• If you do not return both of them, your examination will not be evaluated (will be invalid) and a disciplinary investigation will be started according to the Disciplinary Regulations of Middle East Technical University.
Examinations
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 9
• Students will be requested to prepare PowerPoint
presentations to be presented to the class.
• The subjects of the presentations will be assigned
at the beginning of the semester.
• It is expected that these presentations also include
extra information/evaluation/discussion,
(extra basically means: not from the textbook)
and extra video/animation, etc. (if applicable).
• Therefore, the presentations should not be
limited by the textbook information.
In-class presentation + Report Writing
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 10
• Considering the quality of the presentation, an
additional report about the assigned subject may
be requested after the presentation.
• In this case, the report should be prepared and
submitted within two weeks after the presentation.
• If you do not submit the report, or
if your report grade is less than 60,
you will get NA from the course.
In-class presentation + Report Writing
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 11
• CIM Laboratory (15 %)
• Sensors
• Process Planning and Programming for
Turning and Milling
• Statistical Process Control
• PLC Ladder Diagram Programming

Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 12
• Duration: about 7-8 weeks;
• Needs to allocate extra hour(s) per week ;
(excluding lunch break : 12:30 - 13:30)
• A student is only allowed to miss only one week of
the CIM Laboratory work, without a valid excuse
(10 points will be deducted from overall CIM
Laboratory grade),
• If missed weeks are more than one, letter grade
from the course will be NA.
• Course assistant(s) will evaluate the CIM
Laboratory work.
CIM Laboratory Practice
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 13
• CIM Laboratory hours will be arranged until the end
of the 2nd or 3rd week by considering the course
schedules of the students.
• For the arrangement, individual course schedules
will be collected during lecture hours in the 2nd or
3rd week.
• CIM Laboratory practice will start in the 3rd or 4th
week of the semester.
CIM Laboratory Practice
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 14
If missed CIM Laboratory weeks -without a valid
excuse- are more than one, regardless of your
other grades, NA will be given as your COURSE
GRADE at the end of the semester.
If your course grade is NA, you will not be able to
take the FINAL examination.
CIM Laboratory Practice
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 15
• Besides attending the CIM Laboratory,
you are expected to finish the assigned
practice and write a report with an acceptable
quality (i.e. get an acceptable grade)
• Acceptable grade is 60/100 from each
practice.
CIM Laboratory Practice
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 16
• For a practice, if your grade is less
than 60/100, you will be requested to
improve it until your grade becomes
60/100 or above.
• If you don’t improve, you will get NA
from the course.
CIM Laboratory Practice
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 17
• Class attendance will be taken starting from the
first lecture.
• Even if you are planning to add the course
afterwards, attend the classes starting from the first
lecture.
• For some reason, if you are planning to register to
the course afterwards by directly applying to the
Mechanical Engineering Department, again attend
the classes starting from the first lecture.
Otherwise you will not be accepted.
Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 18
If your class attendance is less than 65.0 %,
regardless of your other grades, NA will be given
as your COURSE GRADE at the end of the
semester.
If your course grade is NA, you will not be able to
take the FINAL examination.
Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 1919
• Your class attendance percentage will be determined by dividing the number of lecture hours you have attended, by the total number of attendances taken throughout the semester.
• Class attendance will be taken for every lecture hour.
• In case a lecture is not given for any reason, attendance is not taken.
• Therefore, attend classes starting from the first lecture of the semester, and don’t try to reach 65.0 % attendance requirement within the last month of the semester.
• By doing so you may not be able to reach 65.0 % attendance.
65.0 % Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 2020
• Why 65.0 %, but not 100 % ?
The remaining 35.0 % is for the lecture days in which you ...
● have medical report,
● are officially participating in an University activity,
● have to do something personal,
● ..., etc.
65.0 % Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 2121
• You should attend at least 65.0 % of the
lectures, regardless of whatever your
excuse is; including medical reports.
• The remaining 35.0 % is for your whatever
excuses.
65.0 % Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 2222
• If you have long term medical issues, so
that you won’t be able to attend 65.0 % of
the lectures, you are recommended to
apply for a leave-of-absence.
• A student who wishes to take a leave-of-absence for
a semester due to health issues, attaches the
medical report to the petition for leave-of-absence
and presents these to the chair of the concerned
Department .
• The medical report must cover 1/3rd of the semester
for the request to be taken into consideration.
65.0 % Attendance
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 2323
• If you have medical report(s) covering MT and/or
FINAL dates, you will be given make-up(s) for the
corresponding examinations after the final
examination.
• If you have medical report(s) covering CIM
Laboratory Practice dates, these practice(s)
should be compensated as soon as possible.
(For compensation inform course assistant(s).)
Medical Reports - When useful?
Course Policy ME 445 Integrated Manufacturing Systems 2424
• Medical reports will not be considered
during calculation of the class attendance
percentage.
