The following provides the lecture schedule for ENSC 405W along with copies of the lecture materials in Adobe Acrobat format. If you do not already have one, you can download a copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader. Lectures will be posted following the lecture.
Note that your attendance to all scheduled ENSC 405W lectures is mandatory for you to receive full marks for Professionalism. Attendance will be taken. Please ensure you arrive on time (chronic lateness will be penalized). Except in the case of documented extenuating circumstances or after one free absence, each missed ENSC 405W class results in a 50% deduction for lack of professionalism (i.e., 3 missed classes = 0% for attendance). Similarly, failure to submit the two required Teamwork Evaluation Inventories on the specified due dates will result in a 100% deduction for teamwork.
Finally, please note that all documents written prior to 2017 should not be used as templates. Read the current assignment rubrics very carefully as your documents are graded in accord with them. We strongly recommend that you print out a copy of the rubrics.
