Evaluation Methodology
PL classes are compulsory.
Assessment has two components: a practical component assessed through reports and work related to PL classes (40 %) and a theoretical component assessed through two written tests taken during the course or a written exam at the end of the semester (60 %). Those who do not obtain a minimum of 9 marks in the practical component are excluded from the theoretical assessment. Those with an average mark of 10 in the tests are exempt from the exam.
Unless otherwise stated on a case-by-case basis, the practical component grade is not carried over from one year to the next. Anyone wishing to keep the grade for this component obtained in a previous year must make this request at the beginning of the semester.
Approval is obtained with an average of at least 10 points, provided that the grade for the theory component is also equal to or greater than 10 points.
