Teaching methods

Lectures and workshop

The course is taught intensively in summer. The exam will be held before the regular semester begins. There is the possibility to make a repeat examination, before the registration deadline of the fall courses.

Because this course is a prerequisite for the engineering programme, the course must be passed in order to participate in the regular courses in the autumn.

Compulsory learning activities

Yes, course requirements will be specified in the curriculum at semester start.

Assessment

Written exam, 4 hours.

Grade: Passed/failed.

Examination support material

The University College's calculator (Casio fx-82Es) and a formula sheet will be handed out
