Teaching method
This subject will be presented in theoretical and theoretical-pratical classes. The participation of experts in a specific topic could also happen.
Evaluation method
This subject will be evaluated according to one of the following methods:
a) 2 Tests (MT) + Research Work (RW)
Final Classification (FC) = 0,70*MT Media + 0,30*TP
com MT Media >= 9,5 val, MT2 >= 7,0 and RW >= 9,5 val.
b) Final Exam (Ex) + Research Work (RW)
Final Classification (FC) = 0,70*Ex + 0,30*RW
with Final Exam >= 9,5 val. and RW >= 9,5 val.
In both cases, the student will be approved only if his/her final mark will be equal or higher 9,5 values (in a 0-20 scale).
