Forms of teaching and examination

The module is devided into lectures and tutorials (§ 4):

  • L: Micro Optical Systems (2 LVS)
  • T: Micro Optical Systems (1 LVS)

Classes are taught in English.

The module ends with a final oral exam (30 minutes).

If you successfully passed the exam, you can award 3 credit points. The evaluation of the exam follows the examination regulations (§10).

This module is offered once a year and has a duration of one semester.
