At an assessment of works of the student during a semestre the following is allowed: - Attendance of occupations;
- Active and productive involvement in a practical training; - Learning of the main and additional literature;
- Execution of laboratory jobs and PWS; - Duly surrender of all jobs

Policy of the academic behaviour and ethics
Be tolerant, respect another's judgement. Declaimings state in the correct form. Plagiarism and other forms of dishonest job are inadmissible. Tracing of the decided problems by other faces, passing an examination for other student are inadmissible prompting and writing off during surrender PWS, an intermediate check-up and final examination. The student, who has been caught out of falsification of any information of a course, will receive a total assessment «F».
The help: Behind consultings on execution of private work of students (PWS), their surrender and a guard, and also behind the supplementary information on the transited stuff and all other originating problems at a readable course revert to the lecturer in his offices-hours.
