Teaching methods

The course is organized in lectures and exercise sessions.

Assessment methods and criteria

- The first session foresees two intermediate written exams for the first unit, and a written exam for the second unit. A sufficient mark in the intermediate exams allows to take an optional oral exam. The unit final mark is computed as the average of the three written exams and, if taken, of the oral exam.

- The next sessions foresee a written and an oral exam. The final mark is computed as the average of the written and the oral exams.

- In either case, the exam final mark is computed as the weighted average of the first (2/3 of the mark) and the second unit (1/3 of the mark) marks.
