Assessment methods and Criteria
The final examination consists of two parts, a written exam and an oral exam.
During the written exam, the student must solve some exercises analogous to those presented during the exercises sessions, with the aim of assessing the student's ability to solve problems in topology.
During the semester there will be a partial written examination and a second one will take place on the day of the first complete written examination.
The oral exam can be taken only if the written component has been successfully passed. The oral exam will be an interview on the topics of the course.
