Teaching methods
Two hours of lectures, two hours of tutorial. Lectures covering the theory with illustrative solved problems. Tutorials devoted to solving numerical problems.
Assessment methods
During the semester, two obligatory mid-term exams are evaluated (each for max 10 points). The test written during seminars are evaluated in total by max 5 points. The final exam is two hours long and written for max 20 points. For successful examination (the grade at least E) the student needs in total 18 points or more and at least 5 points for the last exam.
