Teaching methods
The course is taught with the use of PowerPoint slides, available at Moodle.
Exercises are provided to facilitate the understanding.
The course will be illustrated with examples taken from everyday life in the living world and in industry.

Evaluation methods
- The lab works give you a total of 5 points. These are made by half of the questions at the beginning of the laboratory works and the preparation to the Lab works and by another half by laboratory reports. In case the number of absences (justified or not) becomes significant, the professor has the right to use the article of RGEE allowing the jury to forbid the inscription to the exam.
- There is a written exam counting for 15 points. These are basically the exercises applied to the theoretical course. These exercises are of the same style as those made in exercise sessions during the year. Theoretical questions also make a part of the examination.
- The mid-term examination provides 1 bonus point to the final examination score. The result of the mid-term examination is transferred to the June and August exam sessions but not to the next academic year.
