Teaching methods

Course consist of lectures and independent calculation exercises, and also of guided calculation exercises as time permitting. There are two long classroom sessions, consisting of lectures and guided calculation exercises. Other lectures are one-hour Teams sessions.

Student workload

Course is worth 5 credits. This means that the estimated workload is 5 * 27 h = 135 h.
