EXAM DESCRIPTION

Two partial written test during the teaching period or final written complete exam in both instances followed by oral examination. Reaching a sufficient level of evaluation on the written part (both for the two partial test and for the complete written exam) is a necessary condition to access oral examination. In case of negative outcome of the oral examination or of retirement from the student, the complete written part has to be done again.

ASSESSMENT METHODS

The student should exhibit his capacity to solve simple problems related to biomedical instrumentation by making use of his reasoning skills based on the acquired competences.
