Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
Exercises (70% of the mark)
a) Completing the exercises given each week (0-10 points, minimum 5 to pass). Please hand in at each exercise class a list with the exercises you have completed.
b) Either solving correctly the exercises when asked to pass to the blackboard, or presenting a final written exercise exam (0-10 points, minimum 5 to pass).
The final mark for exercises will be the average of points in a) and b).Seminar (30% of the mark).
Towards the end of the term teams will be asked to present a research paper (from the list below). 0-10 points will be given taking into account content and presentation.
