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 practical classes – TP (application of theoretical concepts to solve practical problems).
Evaluation is performed in two phases:
- Continuous evaluation: theoretical and practical tests throughout the semester.
- Final exam (with theoretical and practical part) for admitted students.
Minimum attendancy to lectures is 50 %.
