Planned educational events and teaching methods - lectures, seminars, practical classes, independent work.

During the semester, the student's work is evaluated during each seminar (presentation, report, addition, participation in the discussion). The criteria for evaluating a student's answer are: • complete disclosure of the issue; • the logic of presentation; • use of basic and additional literature; • analytical reasoning, the ability to draw conclusions. After the completion of Content Module 1 and Content Module 2, respectively, modular control works (CW), in particular, Control Work1 and Control Work2, are conducted.
