Students are evaluated according to a written exam. There are two
formats:
a) The exam can be taken as two partial exams. Duration of each partial
exam: 60 minutes. When opting for this format, three out of four
questions (true/false choice) and two out of three problem sets must be
addressed in each exam. It is necessary to pass both exams (each with a
score larger than 18). The final mark is computed as the rounded-up
average of the two results obtained in the partial exams. The mark
obtained in the first partial exam can be rejected (more below). If a
student does not pass one of the partial exams or rejects a mark he/she
has to take the exam with format b. Partial exams can be sat only on two
specific dates dedicated to partial exams.
b) Alternatively, the exam can be taken as a single general exam at the
end of the course. Duration of the general exam: 90 minutes. With this
format, it is required to address 6 questions (true/false choice) and three
problem sets. The first general exam takes place at the beginning of June.
PLEASE NOTE: in order to sit an exam it is compulsory to be registered
online. Students who are not registered will not be admitted to the exam.
To avoid being excluded due to technical problems, we strongly
recommend printing the screenshot proving the successful registration. A
student can reject a mark within 5 days from its publication through the
online platform. After 5 days the mark is automatically accepted without
any further possibility to reject it.
