Coursework requirements
1 day of lab exercises per week for a total of 5 weeks. Compulsory assignments and reports must be submitted no later than one week after the last laboratory exercise, with all necessary corrections. All assignments must be approved by the course teacher within three weeks before the exam date in order for the students to be admitted to the exam.
Lab assignments are to be completed at the times and in the groups that are assigned and published. Valid absence due to illness or other reasons must be communicated as soon as possible to teaching staff. In cases of valid absence, it may be possible to complete the lab assignments at other times, where agreed with the teaching staff. This is not an entitlement.
No resit is offered for the laboratory assignments. If a student wishes to redo the lab, this can be done next time the subject is taught.
