Use of dictionaries in Informatics exams
Students may request approval to use a language translation dictionary in School of Informatics exams. The dictionary must not include definitions of words, but can include several possible translations and expressions of a single word.
If you wish to use a language translation dictionary in Informatics exams, you must bring your dictionary to the Informatics Teaching Organisation (ITO) office for approval.
