Teaching method

Laboratory work, lectures supported by slides and problems in TP classes.

Evaluation method

It is required to obtain the frequency to the chair, which requires the practical laboratory work and participation in 7 theoretical-practical classes.

Continuous evaluation involves

Theoretical and practical theoretical assessment consisting of five tests - average of the tests removing the lower evaluation is worth 2/3 of the final grade (mandatory 9.5 or above).
Laboratory evaluation - worth 1/3 of the final grade (required 9,5 or higher)
 
• Students who have acquired attendance in previous years will see the theoretical-practical and laboratory component replaced by this registered grade, which in total will have a weight of 1/3 in the final grade.
 
The maximum number of absences allowed is stipulated by law.
