Assessment methods: Receiving a credit for excercises: - elaboration of construction design (executive phase) for a given object along with detailed technical specification of taking over and execution of the works and evaluation of the project implementation; - evaluation of 3 work stages: analyses and problem studies, design solution, ability to prepare a specification of proceedings related to works execution and taking over; - before a project is elaborated, student carries out a detailed dendrological inventorying, determines trees and shrubs for cutting, prepares a request regarding cutting (including attachments), specifies conceivable cutting charges and accomplishes stand project for trees selected for preservation. Receiving a credit for lectures: written examination
