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

MST402 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).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):

Learning outcomes:
In this lab course, students will perform experiments to consolidate the material previously covered in the lectures. The laboratory work also enables students to identify specific experimental difficulties and to learn how to rectify them. By compiling lab reports, students will learn to document their work in a form that is concise, clearly structured and comprehensible to third parties. In the final oral examination, students will be expected to provide summary reports of the experiments performed. The oral exam is designed to assess the degree to which students have understood the material and to train their verbal skills.
