Examinations

Assessment throughout the programme is implemented in multiple formats, striking a balance between traditional examinations and hands-on, practice-oriented tasks. While written or oral exams are still used in some cases, many courses—particularly within the specialisations—prioritise continuous evaluation through group work, project-based assignments, active classroom involvement, and presentations. This approach ensures that students are not only tested on theoretical knowledge but also on their ability to apply what they learn in real-world contexts.
