• homeworks:
  • the homeworks may be requested only before the first exam session (because it's a "phylosophical" choice between taking the exam in normal form or being so much interested in this subject to select a specific topic to investigate for the homework)
  • if a student requests a homework and doesn't deliver it within the deadline then he/she cannot get a new one and must take the exam in normal form
  • the choice of a homework is valid for one academic year, i.e. once being assigned a homework the student cannot change her/his mind and take the exam in normal form
  • the list of possible subjects for homeworks (and master thesis) (last updated on [an error occurred while processing this directive])
