Teaching method

Lectures; peer presentations; moderated in-class discussions.

Evaluation method

The assessment will be based either on a take-home essay assignment or a final exam. Each option will count 100% of the final grade.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT: (100%)

FINAL EXAM (100%)

Students can decide to sit on a 3-hour-long, open-book, questions-based final exam.

All assignments and exams will be checked for plagiarism. Where this is detected, a fail grade will be awarded and the Pedagogical Council will be informed, so that a decision on whether additional sanctions are appropriate is made. Students who fail the exam will be offered the possibility to re-take it. Students with special needs (e.g., medical needs, visual impairments or disabilities, maternity needs) are encouraged to reach out to the professors at the beginning of the course to arrange together a fitting assessment method.
