Assessment methods and criteria
|
Combined exam, Seminar work
Credit requirements: Obtaining at least 8 points out of 12 from the seminar and independent work, a maximum of 6 points for the seminar work, a maximum of 6 points for the independent work. Exam requirements: Exam focused on knowledge from lectures and basic skills from exercises. The overall grade is based on the results of the seminar work, the test and the final exam, which consists of a written and an oral part.
