Lectures. Computer exercises. Consultations. In order to collect pre-examination points during the semester, students are obliged to attend regular lectures and computer exercises and solve 2 case studies which will be presented during the semester. After successfully completing the pre- examination obligations, students are entitled to take the exam. The examination consists of a written and mandatory oral part. During the course of the semester students can pass the written part of the exam through two colloquiums. If the student does not pass the written part of the exam through the form of a colloquium, the student enters the written part of the exam which covers the material of the entire semester. The overall assessment of the exam is formed by summing the number of points won from pre-examination, colloquium (or written exam) and the number of points earned on the oral part of the exam.
