Teaching methods

Lectures and exercises. Exercises will be given, and there will be skilled personnel present in the hours allocated for practical exercises.

Examination requirements

Satisfactory submission of compulsory exercises.

Assessment methods and criteria

The examination is divided into two mandatory parts with graded assessement:
  • A individual written exam (4 hours) that counts 65% of the final grade;
