Assessment criteria
The final score will consist of the outcomes of the systematic work during the semester, the scores from the test and the scores from the written exam.
Additionally, in the case of doctoral students, a written essay describing the topic agreed with the teacher, e.g. quantum algorithm or protocol, will be expected. It should take into account scientific literature (publications) from the last 5 years.
