Teaching methods
Lectures with presentations and examples of real situations and their analysis, case studies, group discussion.
Assessment methods
The condition for the admission to the written exam is the successful completion of the seminars (i.e. meeting the requirements set at the seminars), which will be recorded in the corresponding Notepad of the course. The final evaluation of the subject will then be assigned based on the result of the examination test, where the condition for its successful completion is the achievement of at least 60% of all possible points. Any copying, keeping a record of tests or carrying the tests out, using forbidden aids including any communication devices or any other breach of objectivity of the exam is regarded as a failure to meet the obligations of the subject and as a serious breach of study regulations. As a consequence, the teacher grades the student with "F" and the dean is allowed to initiate a disciplinary action, which might lead to the termination of the studies.
