Assignment conditions

Lecture - a condition for passing the lecture is obtaining positive grades from 3 colloquia held during the semester, covering verification of knowledge of basic issues. Each partial colloquium contains 3 questions. A positive mark for each of the 3 questions is required to pass the test. The grade from the test is an average.

Laboratory - grade calculated on the basis of the component assessing the skills related to the realisation of laboratory exercises and preparation of reports from the laboratory classes carried out as part of the programme, including the student's attendance and activity in classes.

Final course credit: The final course grade is the arithmetic mean of the grades for the different forms of the course.
