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).
30 class hours (= 22.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 90 hours (equivalent to 3 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 67.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):

Learning outcomes:
The rapid growth and merging of modern communications networks brings with it the need to manage individual network elements as well as the overall network. A system is required that can cover all areas, ranging from customer requirements and technical implementation to network operations at all levels.
Students will become acquainted with the typical problems of managing today’s networks. After completing this course they will be able to analyse the architecture of both software-based and hardware-based systems, plan a management system using new, advanced communication interfaces and test its functionality.
