Exams

The next possibility to take the exam is 10 September 2019. If you want to take the exam, please inform me via e-mail (tobias.jahnke@kit.edu) before 20 August 2019 such that I can reserve a time slot for you. If I do not get any answer by that date, I will presume that you do not want to take the exam.
In the same e-mail you can also inform me if you have special restrictions concerning the time of your exam due to important reasons such as, e.g., child care or long journey to Karlsruhe. Those of you who want to take the exam should not forget to register in the CAS Campus system / Studierendenportal as usual.

In the exam questions about the lecture and the exercises will be asked.
