Preamble
Amoud University regards examination, in its broadest sense and in its various types and forms, one of its pillars to realizing its vision and fulfilling its mission. Amoud relies on examination for a structured interpretation and giving of meaning to predicted or actual impacts of its proposals or results. The university relies on examinations to determine the quality of its programs; and as tools for providing information for improving the teaching-learning process, and for placement and grading and of the final degrees of students, as well as for monitoring purposes. Without effective examinations, all these important university functions would be null and void. In this realization, it has become necessary to explicitly prescribe policies that guide examinations in the university.
