Aims

The aim of the subject is to develop drawing by a model with focus on industrial products. The aim of the seminar is to support the ability of both realistic and schematic visual representation.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

The attendance in education is controlled. Missed lessons are compensated according to the agreement with a lecturer (e.g. a compensatory project is assigned).
