elective Courses, additional courses „Elective Courses Materials Science“ (29 CP) − prepare your personal program, discuss it with your mentor, best right away (now!) − may also include Materials Science related courses outside the department − (physics, chemistry, mech. eng., electr. eng., master course „Energy Science and Engineering“…) − incl. adjustment course „Concepts in Materials Physics“, if applicable (CPs count towards degree!) − does not include other obligations/Auflagen − give personal list of modules with mentor‘s signature to study office − only graded modules! ungraded (pass/fail) is not acceptable! „Elective Courses (not Materials Science)“ (9 CP) − choose for yourself or discuss with mentor − few courses in English language at TU Darmstadt − list of already approved courses: see pdf file on Master page and „2. Fachübergreifende Wahlpflichtfächer“ and „3. Ergänzendes oder fachübergreifendes Wahlpflichtfach (passend für beide Kategorien)“ in list „bereits genehmigte Wahlpflichtveranstaltungen“ on Bachelor homepage − may also be from natural sciences or engineering, but only if not Materials Science related − for other than already approved choices: if uncertain get approvement from PD Dr. B. Kastening − English language courses only if they extend beyond admission level for Master course − graded or ungraded (pass/fail) modules: grade does not count towards GPA „Additional courses:“ ad libitum
exams: FP and SL • FP = Fachprüfung: − Graded Exam (oral or written) with only three attempts − After failing twice in same exam, talk to your mentor! − If you and teacher agree: third attempt of written exam may be taken as oral exam − Once during Master course, oral last-chance attempt possible after three failed written attempts • SL, SLb = Studienleistung (SL: pass/fail, SLb: graded): − ungraded study achievement without limitations on number of attempts − in Materials Science: − concerns Labs, Seminars − automatically registered for „exams“ (Lab: successfully carrying out all experiments; Seminar: Successful seminar talk and seminar participation) • Master thesis: − two attempts − once: possibility to return subject without failed attempt latest after 8 weeks
exams continued written exams: Register in time (generally mid-November-mid-December, will be announced in TUCaN; for exams in Materials Science: until 8 days before exam) Changed your mind? Deregister at least 8 days before exam! oral exams: Also register in above time frame, but arrange for appointment yourself! „Elective Courses Materials Science:“ try to bundle 2 (up to 3) exams with similar subjects and make appointment with respective lecturers if sick: If you are sick and it is too late for deregistering: Get physician‘s certificate that you were „unable to participate in an exam“ (not „unable to work“!) and give to students‘ office within three calendar days of exam
TUCaN = central system for organization of studies and teaching • with TUCaN register to modules, courses therein und exams • with TUCaN check your grades important: activate your TU-ID (see letter with student id card) configure your Email address in TUCaN How to obtain information about TUCaN: 1. www.info.tucan.tu-darmstadt.de/tucan/start/index.en.jsp 2. Fachschaft (= student rep. within mat. sci., mostly bachelor students) In case of problems: Don‘t Panic! Ask fellow students, then Ms. Ziegler-Krutz, then me
Functional Materials New BSc and MSc study regulations in WS 2015/16: − „Functional Materials“ switched from the Bachelor to the Master course. − „Materials Engineering“switched from the Master to the Bachelor course (now called „Werkstoffherstellung und -verarbeitung“ in the Bachelor course). Consequences: − Bachelor graduates in Materials Science of TU Darmstadt are not allowed to take „Functional Materials“ for credit. Choose an elective course instead. Encouraged option: „Werkstoffherstellung und –verarbeitung“ - „Functional Materials“ in English will only be offered starting in WS 16/17 - External incoming students (except FAME) please take „Functional Materials“ in their third semester. - FAME students will receive instead credits for their achievements at Grenoble
Mat.Sci.Modules not in Module Guide Modules „Elective Courses Materials Science“ in TUCaN that are not part of the module guide, e.g. since not regularly offered. Examples in WS 15/16: 11-01-2017 In-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy 11-01-2018 Tunable properties in nanomaterials
only interesting for students with Bachelor from TU Darmstadt: Vorgezogene Masterleistungen aus B.Sc. Bitte nach Immatrikulation in Masterstudiengang in TUCaN Email an Frau Ziegler-Krutz, damit Leistungen in den Masterstudiengang umgehängt werden können.
mentors mentors personal advice through professors up to 11 students per professor register via TUCaN for „module“ specific to prof. Choose mentor according to your research interests! Register in TUCaN and arrange for an appointment yourself! The sooner the better, latest at the end of the first semester, else no more registration in TUCaN possible! not enforced (but stronlgy recommended) for FAME students
mentors: Mr. Prof. K. Albe Frau Jun.-Prof. U. Kramm Mr. Prof. L. Alff Mr. Prof. R. Krupke Mr. Prof. W. Donner Mr. Apl.-Prof. C. Müller Mr. Prof. K. Durst Mr. Prof. R. Riedel Mr. Prof. O. Gutfleisch Mr. Prof. R. Stark Mr. Prof. W. Jaegermann Ms. Prof. C. Trautmann Mr. APL-Prof. A. Klein Ms. Jun.-Prof. B. Xu
advice for teaching related questions Prof. W. Donner (dean of studies) Prof. R. Stark (chair of examination board) PD Dr. B. Kastening (scientific coordinator)
Industrial Lab if already done for Bachelor course, you‘re done if in the FAME program, you‘re done internship with duration of at least 6 weeks, with report at company or research lab outside TU Darmstadt relation to materials science finish before starting master thesis apprenticeship or work experience in related areas is also fine get approvement beforehand from Ms. Dr. S. Faßbender information sheet on materials science homepage
Research Lab I First meeting: Wednesday, October 14 at 3:20 p.m. in room L3|01/91
Advanced Research Lab and Master Thesis Boundary condition: only one of ARL and Master Thesis may be carried out ouside of TU Darmstadt, NOT BOTH
