In certain study programmes or courses there are also other forms of assessments or a combination possible (e.g. presentations, group works or seminar papers, art works)

Assessment types in subject areas such as architecture or design might vary. Some of these assessments may take place during the semester.

Please ask each individual lecturer of your classes how they will determine your grade.
