For the fifth year in a row, the Postgraduate and Doctoral Department has switched to electronic system of knowledge evaluation by Socrates' internal system, the teacher, when presenting the final evaluation for the exam is guided by two criteria: the results of the current control and the number of points which the postgraduate received at the exam (credit) based on the results of computer testing. This system is transparent and accessible because every graduate student, regardless of location, has access to it, which significantly reduces the amount of classroom workload for the graduate student and the teacher.
