Requirements to the exam -

Exam constist of written and oral part. To access the exam student must gain enough point from home excercises and test. In the case of excelent results in home excercises and test the written part of exam can be skipped. In oral exam student demonstrates the understanding of theory in two topics selected form the sylabus.
