Course completion requirements -

1. active participation in the seminars (2 absences allowed)

2. fulfillment of continuously assigned tasks, getting the credit

3. achieving at least 70% of the final exam, number of attempts: 1 regular + 2 remedial 

Compulsory reading for seminars represents a vital part of students’ preparation for each session. In case a course participant appears at a session unprepared without having read the obligatory literature assigned, this seminar session is considered as unattended and such an attendee gets an absence in the seminar.

The level of language production represents part of assessment in the credit test/exam. The minimal required level of students' language production is B2/C1.
