Lectures

Evaluation is carried out according to the modular rating system. It consists of two modules. Forms of student assessment: - semester assessment: 1. Modular test work - 20 points. 2. Compilation of colloquia and defense of independent works - 20 points. An applicant is not admitted to the exam if he/she scored less than 24 points during the semester. - final assessment (in the form of an exam), the maximum number of points is 60.
