Academic Honesty

The College of Engineering recognizes that any form or degree of academic dishonesty challenges the principles of truth and honesty, which are among the most important foundation principles of Marquette University. Consequently, the college treats matters of academic dishonesty as serious violations of academic trust and penalizes all students found to engage in such behavior. The reduction of academic dishonesty within the College of Engineering must be a cooperative enterprise of faculty, student and administrators.

Refer to the University Academic Honesty Policy and Procedures in the university section of this bulletin.

Academic Load

The academic load of a student is measured by credit hours assigned to each course. The normal engineering program varies from 15 to 19 credit hours per term.

A Credit Overload Request form for permission to exceed 20 credit hours must be submitted for approval prior to registration to the assistant dean for academic affairs on forms available on the Office of the Registrar website.

Attendance

Because absence from class will prevent a student from getting the full benefit of a course and because in many courses, each student’s involvement contributes to the learning process for all other students in the class, the college has adopted the University Attendance Policy for all of its undergraduate courses.

Background Checks, Drug Testing

Some degrees, majors and/or courses may require a student to submit to a criminal background check and/or drug testing. The results of those checks and/or tests may affect the student's eligibility to continue in that degree, major and/or course.
