10 How is the PSE program organized Compulsory Courses 35 ECTS Elective Courses 19 ECTS German Language Course 6 ECTS Master Thesis 30 ECTS 90 ECTS Seite 10

11 Overview Curriculum PSE 2014 In average 30 CPs in each semester Important: The German course has to be passed after the first semester Seite 11

12 Examinations Registration for examinations: Can be done once a semester in a given period in CAMPUS OFFICE Usually in November (for WS) and June (for SS) Note: No registrations means no possibility to take examination. Check your CAMPUS OFFICE profile in the exam period! It is not possible to upgrade your grade with an additional oral exam! Examination: Examinations can either be written or oral Max. of three attempt for each examination Failing for the third time immediately leads to exmatriculation! Additional Subjects / Electives: You can take voluntary additional subjects, however, once you register, they become part of your curriculum and the above mentioned rules for examinations account for the subjects, too. With an proposal to the examination board, the exam can be listed on the transcript. (Only the name of the subject will be listed, no grade!) Seite 12

13 Master Thesis Registration for Master Thesis: Can be started once 45 CP are achieved in the study program All additional requirements have to be passed! The 45 CP do not include additional requirements Where to do the Master Thesis: The thesis has to be in the field of productions technology Official supervision by a Faculty 4 Institute of RWTH Aachen University External Thesis: Upon application, the thesis can be done externally (e.g. other faculty or industry) Supervisor, however, has to be out of Faculty 4 Institute of RWTH Aachen University Important: Supervisor has to be organized by the student himself! Important: Also the external supervisor has to have a diploma of a university! Otherwise a supervision is not possible. (All information on page 5 of the registration form) Seite 13

14 How to find a master thesis 2) Have a look on the homepage or on the noticeboards of the institutes you are interested in 3) Write a detailed to the assistant where you point out your interests 1) When do I want to start the thesis and in which research field? 4) Have a meeting at the institute Start your planning at least 2 months before you want to start your thesis! Seite 14

15 Advises for the application process Start your planning at least two months before you want to start. If you want to write an external thesis (e.g. at a company) at least three months before. Inform yourself what are the research fields of the institute and of the assistant you want to write an . Write a detailed and personally addressed to the assistant! Ask for a personal meeting. If you are planning an external thesis: Don t name a concrete topic! The internal supervisor has to be involved in the process otherwise he will have no benefit. Seite 15

16 Final Certificate and Transcript of Marks Transcript contains all modules including each mark All compulsory and elective courses as well as the master thesis count into the overall mark (average weighted with the number of CP) Additional courses are listed on the transcript without mark and do not count into the overall mark. Even the German course is listed without a mark. Seite 16

17 In General Official Signatures you need for Any kind of scholarship (certificate of study progress) Change of study plan form (e.g. for additional subjects) Visa extension It is necessary to have all needed documents with you e.g. a current transcript. Otherwise I cannot help you! Pls. Come at least two weeks in advance you need the documents signed! Seite 17

18 What can I do for you? You can contact me if you request a change of the study program or if you want to take an additional course. You have to come to me if you need an official signature (visa extension, change of study plan or applying for a scholarship). If you have problems during your stay I can support you, but you have to be organized by your self too. (Read your examination regulations!) During the second semester there will be a Mid Term Talk in which questions will be answered e.g. registration of the master thesis. Please don t come unexpected in my office. Ask for an appointment per in advanced. Seite 18

19 Class schedule (compulsory courses) Compulsory Corses Gear and Transmission Technology (6 CPs) Mechatronics and Control Techniques for Production Plants (6 CPs) Quality Management (6 CPs) Elective Courses Tribology (5 CPs) Machine Design Process (5 CPs) Total: 28 CPs Seite 19

20 The campus office Log in with your matriculation number (six numbers, you can find this number e.g. on your blue card) Seite 20

21 The campus office II After registration for lecture, exercise or exam you will find this also in your L2P-learning room. The status should turn to Zugeteilt (green) some days after registration. Seite 21

22 A short presentation of the L2P-learning portal Log in with your TIM number (2 letters + 6 numbers) Virtual Classroom it provides access to the study materials from lectures and seminars Seite 22

23 L2P-learning portal after registration Every course in which you take part is listed under the icon My courses You will find all uploaded documents e.g. PowerPoint presentations of lectures or announcements for exams in the learn rooms. Documents of subjects of former semester are still available. Seite 23

24 Example of a learn room in the L2P-portal Lernmaterialien = learning materials (presentations etc.) Literatur = literature Informationen = informations (e.g. informations concerning the exam) Seite 24
