Performance of projects

1.    The assigned projects may be completed in three consequent sessions. Each session is a three and a half-hour laboratory period. ,

2.    Students complete 15 lectures, and 4 project (working in groups of three) and 4 comprehensive laboratory reports in the course. In addition, a paragraph describing the experimental plan and procedure before the first lab session of each cycle, a progress report before the second session should be submitted to the TA who is in charge at that time. Oral quizzes are given by the faculty supervisor at the beginning of the first and second session, and a comprehensive oral defense is scheduled after the final report has been turned in.

3.    Formal oral presentation of the last project for each group as final to the course is given before the entire faculty and class.
