All students have to undergo a written examination.
The practical exercises are highly interactive and are concluded with a written report. In the first year, practical courses comprise elements of syntactic, semantic and pragmatic aspects of medical data. The former is given together with the Dept of Primary Care, the latter together with the Central Service for Hospital Information at the University Hospital Dijkzigt. The Figure opposite gives a typical example of an exercise of the 2nd year course in decision trees. P.C.G.M. Sollet, C. Verweij.
