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).
105 class hours (= 78.75 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 360 hours (equivalent to 12 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 281.25 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this course, students will:
- carry out common vehicle tests such as performance and consumption measurements or chassis technology tests such as balancing and wheel alignment on internal combustion engine, electric or hybrid vehicles.
- define problem-oriented vehicle tests independently and carry them out in small groups under the guidance of the professors involved.
- document and evaluate test results.
 

[updated 30.09.2020]
Module content:
In the context of the lecture, common and specifically defined vehicle tests from different vehicle modules will be presented: Drive train (incl. electric and hybrid), body and chassis (incl. brakes and steering) - introduction and detailed description // Objective, instrumented vehicle tests, as well as the subjective driving tests that are indispensable for passenger cars //
In the practical part of the course, vehicle tests will be carried out, evaluated, documented and assessed in small groups under the guidance of the participating professors. This will be documented in the students´ papers.  
Students´ experiences from previous lab tests will be of advantage here.
