Teacher's information

Students going on Erasmus must check with the course teacher about the end of course conditions.

Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher can complete the course by awarding grade "FFF" in the Information System, and the Dean can initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
