Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
The course-unit credit is awarded on the following conditions (max. 40 points):
- submitting answers to calculating problems and theoretical questions.
The exam (max. 60 points)
- has a written form.
In the first part of the exam student solves 4 examples within 80 minutes. In the second part of the exam student works out answers to 3 theoretical questions within 15 minutes.
The mark, which corresponds to the total sum of points achieved (max 100 points), consists of:
- points achieved in control tests, points achieved to calculating questions and theoretical questions,
- points achieved by solving examples,
- points achieved by answering theoretical questions.
The grades and corresponding points:
A (100-90), B (89-80), C (79-70), D (69-60), E (59-50), F (49-0).
Attendance at lectures is not compulsory but is recommended.
Aims
Students will be made familiar with the methods of mathematical statistics, regression analysis, and time series analysis and will learn how to use the respective methods when solving economics problems. After completion of this course students will be prepared to use these methods in economics courses.
