Didactic methods |
|
| Lectures are performed directly in an aula. Each lecture is followed by description and solution of examples and problems from the lecture being presented in a manner which enables students to master knowledge and skills over mathematical instruments and methods introduced during lectures. <br> Tutorial during which the students will be followed and guided by the tutor with purpose of solving examples and exam problems, and give ideas for solution of problems set as part of exercises. <br> During the execution of the curriculum there may be continuous testing of the achieved level of preparedness of students to perform on the final exam. <br> As part of the laboratory exercises the students will be introduced to basic features of software solutions used in advanced communication protocols and new generation networks, and will approach independent development of simple applications from the observed field. <br> |

Exams |
|
| During the written part of the exam students are allowed to use a list of formulas prepared by lecturers, which may be of use in solving problems. It is not allowed to use other notes, books, cell phones or other electronic devices. <br> Problems, which students must solve during the exam, are of the same type solved during the lectures and tutorials.During the written part of the exam students are allowed to use a list of formulas prepared by lecturers, which may be of use in solving problems.
