Focal subjects
In the course of the first semester, you will be asked to choose two of the four focal subjects. Please note that once a choice has been made, it can only be changed in consultation with one of the MAP Chairs and the respective Focal Subject Head.
Focal Subject Heads:
- Advanced Processes – Prof. Maro Haumann
- Biomaterials and Bioprocessing – Prof. Aldo Boccaccini
- Computational Materials Science and Process Simulation – Prof. Michael Engel
- Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology – Prof. Mathias Göken
As a rule, all MAP Focal Subjects examinations are module examinations, i.e. the contents of several courses of a semester are assessed together in one examination. However, for organizational reasons it is sometimes not possible in terms of time to organize a joint examination, in which case there are exceptionally two individual examinations.
Nevertheless, you will receive an overall grade for the entire module. The examiners do not award an individual mark for their part of the examination, but jointly determine an overall module mark.
If one part of the examination is passed and the other is failed, but you still achieve a good overall grade (4.0 or better), the module examination is considered passed and you cannot repeat the failed part.
