Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MTM.MET Mechatronics, Master, ASPO 01.04.2020 , optional course, technical
MST.MET Mechatronics and Sensor Technology, Master, ASPO 01.04.2016 , optional course, technical
MST.MET Mechatronics and Sensor Technology, Master, ASPO 01.10.2011 , optional course, technical
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).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Martin Löffler-Mang
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Martin Löffler-Mang

Learning outcomes:
In the project we will build our own system according to customer requirements (cooperating companies in research projects). After successfully completing this course, students will be able to apply the methods they have learned and work independently in development projects, as well as carry out projects in interdisciplinary teams. We will focus on developing sensors for meteorological applications: weatherproof and UV-resistant, in use 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
