Assessment criteria: 
The level of acquired competences in theoretical knowledge and practical skills will be evaluated. There will also be self-assessment tests available to the students in every unit.

Assessment methods and weightings:
The assessment will be based on three aspects: a) an exam of the theoretical contents delivered in lectures b) assessment of practical tasks c) evaluation of a research work done during the development of the course about a subject proposed by the instructor. The percentage of the total mark will be 40%, 20% and 40%, respectively. To pass the course the student should get at least 5 out of 10 in each part.
