In the audience there will be the participants, their supervisors and presumably many members of the Visualization Department. There will be the possibility to socialize with future supervisors of student research projects and diploma thesis.

Grading and Certificate

For each assignment you will receive up to 20 points, so there is a total of 100 points to achieve. To get a certificate you have to reach at least 60 points. In assignment 1-4 at least 9 points must be reached, and 14 points for the last assignment. The assignments have to be handed in at the given dates and times. Solutions handed in too late or not compiling on the computers of the Lab without errors can't be graded. Warnings during compile time lead to deduction of points. The grading takes place directly after the deadline in attandance of the students. The achieved number of points is mailed to you afterward.

Team work

Each participant must work on his own solution. Submissions that are apparently identical will not be graded. Needless to say, you are encouraged to discuss the assignments in groups.
