Exam modality. The student can decide between the following two alternatives:
Written exam and optional oral exam. The written exam consists of excercises and open questions on the theory. The duration of the written exam is around 2 hours. In addition, the student can ask for an oral examination, but please notice that the mark can go up or down as well. The student must book the exam on infostud;
Practical project, plus mandatory oral examination. The project is on a topic assigned by the instructor. The student has to produce a written project report (preferably in LaTeX - I suggest using the editor Overleaf https://www.overleaf.com/), which is discussed in details during the oral exam. The oral exam is on the full course program (not just on the topic assigned). The date of the project discussion and oral exam is agreed with the instructor (it must be after the date of the written exam). Before the date of the exam, the student has to send to the instructor all the project material, including the written report, the code, and any other useful material. The student must book the exam on infostud.
IN ANY CASE, THE EXAM MUST BE BOOKED ON INFOSTUD, BEFORE THE DATE OF THE WRITTEN EXAM.
OFFICE HOURS: Every Thursdays, from 11:30 to 13:00. Please send me an email to book an appointment in advance. How to access office hours:
