    How to complete the course

    Weekly homework will be given during the course, and there will be an exam at the end of the course. Your final score will be based on homework and exam, or exam alone. The ideal way of completing the course involves active participation in the lectures and exercise sessions. You can also study on your own, but it is usually less fun than meeting people in person. The material can be found here. More details on the assessment can be found here.


    Q&A Zoom sessions

    Additional help: Laskutupa

    Laskutupa is a place where students can get extra help with the homework or difficult concepts from any course. Assistants will always be there, ready to help. You can work alone or with your friends. More info: https://math.aalto.fi/en/studies/laskutupa/
