Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MST403 Mechatronics and Sensor Technology, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2005 , semester 4, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
30 class hours (= 22.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 60 hours (equivalent to 2 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 37.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
MST103 Mathematics I
MST203 Mathematics II
MST204 Electrical Engineering
MST302 Mathematics III
