Online self-study material, online resources and laboratory exercises
Yksilölliset oppimisväylät
The course is mainly completed by participating in teaching according to the schedule, whereby studies progress according to the group's schedule and at the pace of independent exercises. The theory of the topic is discussed and exercises are done together during face-to-face teaching hours. The student also has the opportunity to complete the course at an accelerated pace by studying independently and doing tasks at their own pace. The course can also be studied independently, for example, alongside work. It is advisable to discuss independent study with the responsible teacher at the start of the course. The course includes group activities.
TKI ja työelämäyhteistyö
The exercises carried out in the course are based on practical solutions in working life.
Tentit ja muut määräajat
During the course, scored exercises will be carried out at the end of each topic. All required tasks must be completed by the deadline set in the course schedule. Resits are arranged with the responsible teacher.
Opiskelijan työmäärä
Achieving the learning outcomes requires 135 hours of work of which about third are contact lessons and guided exercises and the rest are self study, practice exams and remote exercises
