Additional Information

Conditions for granting credit points

The individual courses can have a very different character with regard to the teaching of subject-specific content and competences. In addition to more lecture-oriented courses, there are seminar-, project- and practice-based forms of teaching. The latter are based on a teaching concept that logically builds on one another and takes place in dialogue between teachers and students as well as in discourse between the students. In accordance with these differences, the regulations on compulsory attendance are announced at the beginning of the respective course.
