Description of the exam
procedure
Please note that 2-3 weeks before the
exam the students must hand-in the synopsis as a power-point
presentation. A synopsis is generally defined as "a short
written presentation to serve as a basis of an oral
examination".
The oral exam consists of the following 2 parts:
- An oral presentation of 5-7 minutes
- A discussion in Chinese with the examiner. The discussion will
be based on the PPT-presentation and then evolve into a general
discussion about other topics from syllabus.
The grade is based on an overall assessment of both
disciplines.
