It is written.
The written exam is finalized to verify the acquired knowledge by the students and their critical capabilities in the elaboration of the learned contents. In order to this, the exam, lasting 45 minutes, is structured into a small number of open questions. During the time of the exam, students can consult the texts in the program. Students have to attend the exam with the program of the current academic year, even if they are enrolled in previous academic years. If the exam is “not passed”, the students will have to attend the exam again in the same manner. For non-attending students, the exam procedures are the same.
Any change in the usual teaching activities (classes and office hours) will be reported within the AULAWEB site.
