Pedagogically uses the educational method based on the learning necessity to win difficulties. Each pupil faces in the beginning of the discipline a practical case in the domain of the building pathology, for which he does not have resolution aptitudes. The chance is given to develop these aptitudes in uncurling of the discipline with theoretical lessons, thematic lectures, debates and technical and commercial presentations.
Distributed evaluation with final exam
