Lectures, lab work, independent assignments, a test, a lab report, lab work presentations, and a final exam.

− ongoing (semester) assessment (grade for practical assignments (minimum grade 24, maximum 40); quizzes (6–10); independent work (5–10)); − final assessment in the form of an exam (grade for theoretical knowledge (minimum 12, maximum 20 points); grade for the practical portion (13–20)). Students who have earned a total score lower than the critical minimum of 35 points must submit an additional, individually completed comprehensive assignment in order to be admitted to the final assessment.
