The evaluation
At the evaluation unit at CBS’s Economic & Analysis department
we ask you to evaluate the overall course. In other words if there
has been exercise classes and lectures the evaluation should
include both. We evaluate every course and faculty to secure and
strengthen the professional level of the offered course.
