To successfully pass the course you have to pass the written examination and receive a credit for the labs.
To gain the credit from the labs you have to: select a topic for your semestral project, implement the semestral project, present two short reports about the work progress, and finally present and demonstrate the project. Last update: Iser Tomáš, Mgr., Ph.D. (21.02.2025)
