Current control
Assessment of the current control of progress (rating score of admission) is a sum of estimates of current control at the classroom and out-of-class activities and estimates of boundary control. At the current control of progress academic achievements of students are evaluated on a 100-point scale for each completed task (the answer to the current classes, homework, independent work of students (hereinafter - SRC), border control) and the final result of the current control of progress is summed up by the calculation of the arithmetic mean of all estimates received during an academic period.

Midterm control
Midterm control is carried out at least twice during an academic period in the framework of one academic discipline in accordance with the academic calendar. The form of the midterm control within each discipline is established by the teacher taking into account its specificity and is reflected in the curriculum of the discipline (Syllabus).

Each academic period ends with the intermediate attestation (exam) of students.
Interim Attestation of students is carried out in the form of examinations, reports on professional practice, as well as reports on research / experimental-research work (for master's and doctoral students) with the obligatory marking and is defined as an examination session.
For the final control of the Registrar's office in the electronic examination sheet in the AIS "Hero study" are inserted students accumulated during the academic period scores and grades indicating the rating of admission. Assessment of the rating of admission to interim certification (exam) has a cumulative nature and consists of assessments of current performance control and assessments of milestone control (2 milestone control during the academic period).
During the interim certification of the academic discipline, the grade received at the exam and the average score of the assessment of the current control of progress during the academic period are taken into account.
A student who does not have an admission rating for a discipline is not allowed to the final control on this discipline.
The development of interim control questions is carried out by the teacher who leads the classes in this discipline and is provided to the students no later than two weeks before the exam session.

− a written exam based on the tickets;
− testing, including open and closed questions (computer or paper-based);
− сombined exam, which implies 3 forms:
1) Written with oral defense of the answer;
2) Project defense: project, presentation, case study, business plan, analytical note, consulting report, PR-project, article writing, news report, interview, script writing, sketches, short film, etc;
3) Testing, including opening questions requiring an oral answer or solving problems or solving cases.
