Teaching methods
Formal lectures and exercices sessions onsite.
Evaluation methods
Written exam of 2 hours, closed-book, with the use of a basic calculator (single-line display).
The exam mainly consists of exercises to solve but may include theoretical questions.
A non-mandatory exemption test is organized at the beginning of the semester, and a mandatory evaluation will be held at the end of the course outside of the exam period. Both evaluations are at the same level as the exam and are conducted in a similar manner. Students who score at least 14/20 on the exemption test or at least 12/20 on the evaluation outside of the exam period may be exempted from the final exam.
