Lectures. Laboratory and Computing Practice. Consultations – individual and group. During the semester, students are required to attend lectures, laboratory and computing classes. After successfully realized examination prerequisites, students take the final exam in written (computing part) and oral form (theoretical part). Written part of the exam can be quarterly taken through the two colloquiums.
