Exam

A written Master's examination (block test) is offered every semester. This includes all mandatory 12 ECTS and the exam takes 135 minutes (old examination regulation) or 180 minutes (new examination regulation).

The examination consists in approximately equal parts of the topics covered in the three courses. General questions and calculation tasks are combined.

All common aids are allowed (except for programmable calculators!).

The course contents of the elective modules are not relevant for the examination.

The course contents dealt with in the previous (current) semester are always relevant for the examination.

Registration for the examination must be made in time at tumonline. The examination office is responsible for the registration for the exam.
