Assessment
In the first period a set of exercises is given. These should be worked out, strict deadline 1-4-2022 (Grade: G_1). The exercise should be handed in individually.

In the middle of April a take home exam including practical exercises is given. This exam can be done by groups of two students. The report of this exam should be returned to us before 3-6-2022 (Grade: G_2).

Thereafter an appointment can be made for an oral examination over Chapter 18 (including exercise 18.1, 18.2, and 18.3), 19, and 20 (Grade: G_3). Note that material discussed in Chapter 1 to 9, which is relevant for the material in Chapter 18 to 20 can also be part of the oral examination. The oral exam must be passed with a 6 or higher.

Then, provided that G_3 is larger than or equal to 6, the final grade is computed by the formula: (G_1 + G_2 + 2 G_3)/4.
