Ohjeita opiskelijalle osaamisen tasojen saavuttamiseksi

Students' understanding of the course material is evaluated based on exams and exercises. The course also offers optional external Bonus work, usually a short assay. There are two half-exams (at middle and end of the course) as well as a final exam at the end of the course. Students can choose which exams they want to take. All exams are Electronic. To pass the course with a grade of 1, the student will have to score at least 50 % of the maximum points in the exam. A good understanding of the core content will earn the student a grade of 3. In order to earn a grade of 4 or 5, the student will have to have a good or excellent understanding of complementary knowledge.
