Assessment criteria
Number of permitted absences and the rules of absence management:
Attendance at lectures and classes is obligatory; maximum 3 justified absences per semester are allowed: 2 for lectures, 1 for classes.
Credit rules:
1. Test at the beginning of each class. Obtaining a minimum of 60% of the total points (not from each class) is required to be allowed for the exam. An additional test for students who do not fill this condition will take place during the last classes in the semester.
2. Oral exam
Conditions for passing the retake:
Oral exam
Practical placement
None
