Completion conditions

Assessment and completion of the course: Credit test and examination Continuous assessment: Student passes the continuous assessment and receives credits when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 20% out of 39%. Credit test Final assessment: Student passes the final assessment and passes the examination when he or she meets the requirement to obtain at least 31% out of 61%. Examination Overall assessment: Overall assessment is the sum of the assessments obtained by students in the assessment period. The overall result is determined in accordance with the internal regulations of the Technical University in Košice. (Study Regulations, the internal regulation principles of doctoral studies)
