Assessment methods
The course takes the form of tutorials/lectures. Students are allowed to take the test after the seminar work has been written, handed over and marked with PASSED by the tutor. The course is completed with a written exam. Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
