Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
• result of tests (weight 75 %, each test is rated with 0–100 points),
• discussion on seminars (weight 25 %, each seminar is rated with 0–100 points).
At least 50 points are needed in average of both weighted results. Further, written solution to prescribed excersises should be handed in.
