Assessment criteria
Lecture: Learning outcomes will be verified at the end of classes during the exam. The exam was conducted remotely on the Kampus platform. Students will write it in a designated room of the Faculty of Management of the University of Warsaw. The final grade is based on a single-choice examination test.
To be admitted to the exam, you must pass the exercises.
People who did not pass the exam on the first date may take the exam in a resit session.
Exercises: Credit based on points obtained: for group and individual work (max. 200 points). Individual partial works will be carried out as individual or team works. Each class will include at least one scored assignment, and after each class, homework in the form of supplementary readings or case studies will be assigned. Passing the exercises is a necessary condition for taking the exam. Some of the tasks are done during classes and some at home. Each work should be submitted on a strictly defined date and in the form agreed during the classes (it is not possible to submit the work later or to justify not submitting it - this means loss of credit points). Two tasks per semester are analysis and presentation of a case study.
The method of calculating the grade for the exercises is similar to the calculation of the grade for the exam test, i.e. persons who do not obtain at least 55% of the pass points receive an unsatisfactory grade (2.0) in the first round.
Three absences from classes are allowed per semester, and each subsequent absence must be accounted for while on duty with the leader of a given class group.
