Linear algebra.
Type of Assessment for UE in Q2
Q2 UE Assessment Comments
The exam consists in two parts. Part 1 (finite groups) and Part 2 (Lie groups and algebras). If the student fails on one of the two parts, although the arithmetic mean is greater than 10/20, he/she will have to present the part where he/she failed, at the second session.
