Assessment Criteria

Each student are required to carry out the analysis and design methods given in the lectures on the given physical system model. Students present their results and evaluate them in context of the every previous week. The theoretical background given in the lectures are evaluated via one midterm and one final exam. Students are to prepare a term paper which presents their implementation of the theoretical background on the given system.
