Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing), Dialogic (discussion, interview, brainstorming), Work with text (with textbook, with book)
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to provide the necessary theoretical knowledge and computational skills in a specialized SOPHAS software that is specifically created for fast processing of cash flow models, especially in the insurance industry.
Students will be able to use acquired knowledge not only in the system of insurance but also in other related disciplines, they will formulate alternate approaches, select appropriate methods and suitably present the solution and defend it with necessary arguments.
Prerequisites
unspecified

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination, Student performance assessment

The examination is written, eventually oral.
