Yksilölliset oppimisväylät

Opiskelija opiskelee opintojakson pääsääntöisesti oman ryhmän aikataulun ja toteutustavan mukaisesti. Pokkeavasta suoritustavasta tulee sopia erikseen opintojakson opettajan kanssa.

TKI ja työelämäyhteistyö

Opintojaksolla on vierailevia luennoitsijoita.

Tentit ja muut määräajat

Opintojaksolla ei ole tenttiä. Oppimistehtävien palautusajankohdat käydään läpi opintojakson alussa.

Opiskelijan työmäärä

Opintojakson laajuus 5 op vastaa noin 135 tunnin työmäärää.

Further information
