Part 3 of the Appendix: Types of Courses (according to the guideline on types of courses of the Curricula Committee of the Senate of Graz University of Technology on 10 January, 2005) 1. Lecture type courses: VO, VU In lecture type courses, students are given a didactically well-structured introduction to the sub-areas of the subject and its methods. Assessment takes place by examinations that are written, oral, written and oral as well as oral or written depending upon the examiner's choice. The examination procedure has to be defined in the course description. a. VO In lectures (VO), the content and methods of the subject are presented. b. VU Lectures with practical exercises (VU) offer instructions on how to acquire knowledge independently or how to apply it independently in examples in addition to an introduction to the sub-areas of the subject and its methods. The ratio of lectures to exercises is to be set down in the curriculum. The courses have an immanent examination character. 2. Seminar type courses: SE Seminar type courses promote scientific work and discussion and should be an introduction to the discursive and argumentative process of the subject. Students are required to submit written work and/or give an oral presentation as well as participate in the critical discussion. Seminars are courses with an immanent examination character. They serve to present scientific methods, work out and critically assess one's own results as well as specific topics of the scientific literature and to practice having a technical discussion. 3. Practical exercise type of courses: UE, LU, PR In practical exercises, abilities and skills are developed as part of the preprofessional education and training in order to consolidate and/or expand the material that was presented in the corresponding lectures by means of practical, experimental, theoretical and/or design work. Practical exercises are courses with an immanent examination character. The maximum group size is set down in the curriculum or determined by the Dean of Studies. Special consideration has to be given to the necessary room and equipment. The curriculum can make the successful completion of the practical exercise a prerequisite for registration for the corresponding lecture examination. a. UE In practical exercises, the students are trained to use their capabilities to solve practical problems. b. LU Curriculum 2006 in der Version vom 1. 10. 2006 Seite 17 von 18

In laboratory exercises (LU), abilities and skills are developed as part of the pre-professional education and training under especially intensive supervision in order to consolidate and/or expand the material that was presented in the corresponding lectures by means of practical, experimental and/or design work. An important part of the laboratory exercises is the drawing up of short reports on the work conducted. c. PR In projects, experimental, theoretical and/or constructive/design applied work or small research projects are conducted that take all the necessary steps into consideration. Projects are completed by written work which is part of the assessment. Projects can be carried out as team or individual work, although the individual performance must still be able to be assessed when working in a team. The Granting of Places in Courses with a Limited Number of Participants: If more students register for a course than there are places, then additional groups or parallel courses are planned. If in exceptional cases the respective maximum number of participants for an elective course is exceeded due to a lack of resources, then it has to be ensured that the students registered obtain the opportunity to complete this course at the earliest possible point in time.
