On this page, you can track the course's development over time. Once the course analysis is published, data for each course offering is displayed, including the number of registered students, course results, and planned improvements for the next session. All course syllabuses and course memos are shown on the page Archive.

The information can help prospective, current, and former students with course selection, or to follow up on their own participation. Teachers, course coordinators, examiners, program directors, and others can use the page as a resource for course development.

2025

Autumn 2025-50042 ( Start date 25 Aug 2025, English )

Changes planned for the next course offering

Improvements for the next course offering: - The examination format will be reviewed. If the objective is to assess knowledge retention, an in-person closed-book exam will be considered; if a take-home exam is maintained, stronger alignment with course content and learning objectives will be ensured. - Alignment between lectures, intended learning outcomes, and examination questions will be strengthened. - Clearer expectations regarding the examination and more structured feedback will be provided. - Study materials will be revised to ensure an appropriate balance between depth and usability. - The weighting of laboratory work in the final assessment will be evaluated. Overall, although the course is regarded as relevant and contains several strong components, the assessment structure and pedagogical coherence require improvement.
