Academic Rules and Regulations
All academic rules and regulations with regard to teaching and examinations are
laid out in this chapter. These are in conformity with the formal ‘OER’ (Course
& Examination Regulations) approved for LUC; the rules and regulations in this
handbook constitute the elaboration of that basic document for operation within
the college. Because the OER is a translation of a Dutch document, the language
there may differ from the more natural English in our rules and regulations. The
OER can be found on the college website.
Furthermore, LUC’s rules and regulations exist within the framework of its
Honour Code, which is elaborated in this handbook as the fundamental basis
of the college.
The protocols of specific committees, such as the Examinations Committee,
can be found on their pages on the LUC website. Every student enrolled in the
LUC bachelor’s programme is responsible for knowing and complying with the
rules and regulations as laid out here and is, thus, expected to comply with its
content. We advise you to read carefully through this chapter, as this might save
you a lot of time, disappointment and problems later. If you have any questions
with regard to these rules and regulations, do not hesitate to contact the LUC
Examinations Committee to ask for an explanation.
