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

MAB-2.1 Mechanical and Process Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2004 , semester 2, mandatory course
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.-Ing. Helge Frick
Lecturer: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Helge Frick

Learning outcomes:
This module aims to teach further aspects of the mathematical fundamentals of mechanical and process engineering. The content of the course is aligned closely with the material dealt with in the lectures Electrical Engineering, Strength of Materials I and II, Engineering Mechanics II and Automation Technology. The fundamentals and basic terminology of statistics will also be addressed in this course.
