- critical interpretation of scientific results
- developing practical skills to work safely in a laboratory
The final grade is composed based on the following categories:
Oral Exam determines 50% of the final mark.
PRAC Practical Assignment determines 50% of the final mark.
Within the Oral Exam category, the following assignments need to be completed:
Within the PRAC Practical Assignment category, the following assignments need to be completed:
50% of the points are attributed to theory and 50% to lab courses
lab courses are evaluated based on work in the lab, results and lab reports
the theorical exam is based on pure theorical questions and exercises.
the student has to pass on both the theoretical exam and the lab courses to obtain a credit
