The URS Research Grade
The work that the student does with the research mentor is 75% of the final grade.
We suggest the following guidelines when evaluating the student's grade at the end of the semester:
| A | Exceptional. Student took initiative or performed all duties above and beyond expectations. |
| AB | Active engagement in research activity, completed all assignments, reported to work regularly and for expected number of hours, developed new skills and applied them appropriately. |
| B | Did not fully meet expectations. Somewhat engaged in research activity, did not always work expected number of hours, no evidence of new or improved ability for systematic inquiry. |
| BC - C | Below expectations. Minimal initiative and engagement. Poor performance in all areas. |
| Below C | Very Poor performance in all areas. |
