Activities of teaching and learning:
-
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
In order to ensure the active work of students throughout the study semester, the ability to apply theoretical knowledge in practice, the objective assessment of study results, the University applies cumulative assessment. In the application of cumulative assessment, the study results are assessed by intermediate assessments (test, individual work, report, defence of laboratory work, etc.), and the final grade sums up the marks of intermediate assessments and examinations. If a student fails or fails to submit for the semester assignments on time and does not collect the minimum score for the specified number of interim assessments, he/she is not allowed to take the final exam.
Each study program is completed with an assessment of the graduate's education - final examinations and / or defence of the final work (project).
The university has a ten-point grading system.
