Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:

The course credit requirements are compulsory attendance at seminars and laboratory exercises. It is also necessary to submit complete and correct required seminar reports and assessment of both written seminar tests for at least 50% of total points. Obtaining the credit from seminars is a condition for admission to the final exam. The exam is in written form.


Attendance at seminars is compulsory. In case of justified absence, the missed seminar may be compensated with an individual assignment. Continuous checking is made by means of written tests. In case of a failure, it is required to repeat the test.
