Type of delivery of the course
Lessons in presence, 4 or 5 hours per week, according to the academic calendar. Self-assessment exercises will be assigned to be carried out at home. It is suggested to study and practice the topics as they are presented.Type of evaluation
Written examination, with both calculation and theoretical questions (possible oral colloquium).
