Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The course is structured with theoretical classes – T (exposition of the subjects of the course and presentation
of small practical examples and computational simulations) and practical classes – TP (application of theoretical
concepts to solve practical problems).
- Evaluation will consists in two theoretical and practical tests during the semester.
