Notes on the specialisation subject "Laser in der Materialbearbeitung"
1) Choice of subjects
The specialization subject "Lasers in Materials Processing" consists of the core subject "Fundamentals of Laser Beam Sources" (6 LP), optionally one of the two core subjects "Materials Processing with Lasers" (6 LP) or "Laser Technology in Manufacturing" (6 LP), and a supplementary subject with 3 LP. If one of the modules "Materials Processing with Lasers" or "Laser Technology in Manufacturing" is outsourced from the specialization subject and instead taken as a competence field in the bachelor's degree program or as a specialization module in the master's degree program, it is also possible to choose either the module "Systems Engineering for Laser-Based Manufacturing" or the module "Solid State Lasers" as a supplementary subject with 6 LP in the specialization subject "Lasers in Materials Processing".
2) Check mode
2.1) Core and advanced subjects are examined in writing (2 h).
2.2) Supplementary subjects are examined verbally (20 min).
