• Lectures
• Guest speaker's talks (in class or in distance)

A lecture is a lesson in which the teacher explains and discusses a topic in depth, guiding students through key concepts and providing critical insights. It often involves speaking to the class, using examples, and sometimes encouraging questions or brief interactions.

Guest speaker's talks are presentations given by experts or professionals invited to share their knowledge and experience on a specific topic. These talks offer students real-world insights and perspectives beyond the regular curriculum.

Students who attend the course are required to complete a group assignment and present their work in class. The grade earned for the group assignment, if higher than 18/30, will be factored into the final grade and averaged with the grade (out of 30) received for the written response on the final exam, which will take the form of a scenario-based question.

Students who do not attend the course will instead be required to take a final exam consisting of two scenario-based questions. The final grade will be calculated as the arithmetic average of the grades (out of 30) awarded for each written response.
