P/F
Other requirements for final grade
Homework, Labs and an individual Project
The project should be individual and connected to your research. This part of the course can be finished later, in most cases hopefully by producing a scientific publication, where at least one of the statistical methods learnt in the course should be included.
Opportunity to complete the requirements via supplementary examination
Opportunity to raise an approved grade via renewed examination
