50% of the maximum exercise points (in 1st and 2nd half of semester) are needed to be able to take part in the examination at the end of the semester. In the middle of the semester there will be a written intermediate exam which counts about 1/3. Every student has to pass the intermediate exam and take actively part in the two Hands-On sessions to take the final exam and to successfully pass the course. At the end of the course there is a second written exam (counts about 2/3). Students who want to improve their mark can also register for an oral examination. Outstanding exercise results and participation in discussion can lead to a better mark.
