Assessment methods and criteria
The evaluation is based on a 100-point system. Semester control includes control works, home practical works and assessment of practical work defence. The maximum / minimum number of points that can be obtained by a student during the semester assessment is 60 points / 36 points. The final assessment is conducted in the form of an exam. The maximum / minimum number of points that can be obtained by a student on the exam is 40 points / 24 points.
