Online self-study material, online resources and laboratory exercises

Study forms and methods

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.
