This module is a typical 60/90 course:
60 hours presence (lectures + labs)
90 hours self-study 
As with all other subjects it means that
YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!
The course consists of:
- Lectures
- Labs with hands-on training and exercises
- Homework
- Discussion
- (Student Presentations?)
