The Grading Table

06 November 2013

On Thursday 3 October, Elmer Sterken, Rector Magnificus of the University of Groningen, awarded the first degree certificate accompanied by a Grading Table. This shows how the performance of the graduate compares to that of graduates in the same degree programme in the past three years. This makes it easier to judge a graduate’s performance in an international context.

The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
