Lectures, practical classes, consultations, individual work.

The academic semester has two substantive modules. After completing the first module, a written test is conducted, with a maximum score of 40 points. After completing the second module, an exam is held on the material of both modules, with a maximum score of 60 points. A condition for achieving a positive grade for a discipline is to obtain a total of at least 60 points.
