Student workload

3 cr = 80 h student work
- 14 h laboratory work
- 66 h independent work, reports an pre-assignments

Evaluation methods and criteria

The course is assessed on a scale from 0 - 5 based on the scorse from
- pre-assignments, weight 30 %
- laboratory notes and reports, weight 70 %

Laboratory notes must be returned for all works.

Activity and work habits in the laboratory may affect the grade +/-1.

Failed (0)

Less than 50 % of the scores, absence or missing laboratory notes.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

50 - 70 % of maximum score

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

70 - 90 % of maximum score

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

More than 50 - 60 % of maximum score
