Disclaimer
The present syllabus we are providing is not set in stone. It has been created to provide a basic guide for the course, however, there is a potential for modifications to it. These modifications will depend on a couple of factors. These factors include the pace at which the students grasp the course material, better known as their learning speed, as well as any unforeseen circumstances that might occur throughout the duration of the course. It is important to note that we will take it upon ourselves to communicate any adjustments or changes to the syllabus to all the students well in advance before implementing them.
