1 1 (including the changes of October 2007 and November 2008) Examination and Study Regulations for the Bachelor of Engineering degree programme Information Engineering at the Department of Information and Electrical Engineering of the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science at Hamburg University of Applied Sciences of 16 th November 2006 On 16 th November 2006 the President of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences approved the Examination and Study Regulations for the Information Engineering Bachelor degree programme which were agreed by the Faculty Council of the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences on 6 th July This approval is based on Section 108 (1, 3) of the Hamburgisches Hochschulgesetz HmbHG of 18 th July 2001 (Hmb GVBl. p. 171), last change on 4 th September 2006 (Hmb GVBl. p. 494). The agreement of the Faculty Council is based on Section 16 (3, 1) of the Grundordnung der Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Hamburg of 1 st September 2004 (Amtl.Anz p. 2086), last change on 30 th June 2006 (Amtl. Anz p.1550). Preamble The Department of Information and Electrical Engineering offers the following two Bachelor of Engineering degree programmes (Bachelor of Engineering (B Eng)): - Informations- und Elektrotechnik (German language) - International course Information Engineering (English language) In addition to the Bachelor Study degree programmes three consecutive Master study programmes exist: - Master study programme Automatisierung(Automation) (Master of Engineering (M Eng)) - Master study programme Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik (Information and Communication Engineering) (Master of Engineering (M Eng)) - Master study course Mikroelektronische Systeme (Microelectronic Systems) in cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences West-coast Heide (Master of Science (M Sc)) All three Masters are German study degree programmes (study language German). The degree programmes are international and are specifically directed towards international student applicants. In order to make the programmes more attractive for this target group the classes and examinations are held in English. In this way, foreign student applicants with little or no knowledge of German are targeted and thus the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences can play a part in increasing the attractiveness of studying in Germany for foreigners. In addition the international students should be encouraged to learn the German language because the consecutive Master degree programme is held in the German language. Therefore the curriculum includes lessons in the German language especially in the field of non-technical subjects. For specific lessons of the curriculum the students can choose between lessons held in English or German language. A degree programme in the field of Information Engineering provides an excellent foundation for an engineer in the fields of the future in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. The programme conveys knowledge in the area of digital information technology, telecommunications and automation as well as the important areas of computing for the programming of modern systems. The necessary knowledge, ability and methods are conveyed in such a way that the students are able to work in a practice-oriented way with a scientific foundation, in particular being able to analyse problems systematically as well as having a methodical approach to problem-solving and a teamwork approach to working. During the degree programme the students are given the opportunity to gather knowledge and experience internationally, in particular through the practical training in industry outside of Germany.

3 3 1 Scope The following rules of the course specific examination and study regulation for the Bachelor of Engineering programme in Information Engineering complements the General Examination and Study Regulation for Bachelor and Master Study Course Programmes of the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science (GESR-ECS-BM). 2 Degree programme structure and length (1) The study course programme Information Engineering is a Bachelor of Engineering study course with additional consecutive Master study courses in Mikroelektronische Systeme (Microelectronic Systems), Automatisierung (Automation) and Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik (Information and Communications Engineering). (2) The standard course length for the Bachelor of Engineering qualification is three and a half academic years (seven semesters). The first academic study year includes the basic theoretical and application foundation courses and the second year the reinforcement of the basics. A one semester period of training in industry is integrated into the fifth semester while the last two semesters improve the qualification in Information Engineering. During the seventh semester a Bachelor thesis has to be written. (3) In addition some of the lessons are offered in the German language by the Department of Information and Electrical Engineering. If the lessons are selected in the German language the examination is also in the German language. (4) The department develops a general course plan for the Bachelor of Engineering degree programme which shows in particular the scope, class type and place in the curriculum for each subject. In each academic year the subject timetable is founded on teaching methodology. With the exception of the compulsory electives of the seventh semester the students are advised to pursue their studies according to this recommended course programme. The department develops learning objectives and teaching content for each subject and these are published in German and English in the appropriate form. The course programme is approved by the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science Council and applies according to its last approved form. 3 Academic qualifications On passing the Bachelor of Engineering examination the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences awards the academic qualification Bachelor of Engineering (BEng). The Bachelor certificate includes the name of the study course programme Information Engineering. 4 Study language (1) The lecture and examination language is English. Some of the module examinations can be taken in the German language. (see Section 7 (6)). (2) The examination and study regulations are drawn up in German and English. 5 Training in industry (1) A training period in industry appropriate for engineers is integrated into the third academic year of the Bachelor of Engineering degree programme and lasts nearly the whole fifth semester (20 weeks). The training period in industry can only be started when all examinations of the first study year have been successfully passed. Exceptions can be agreed upon by the department representative for the training period in industry if the regulation causes an unnecessary hardship, in particular socially or for private reasons, leading to an extension of the degree programme which cannot be justified and the deviation does not stand in the way of a sensible organisation of the degree programme. The student must hand in the grades certificate of the first academic year to the representative for the training period in industry before starting the practice in industry. (2) The students must prove the successful completion of the training period in industry to the depart-
4 4 ment representative for the training period in industry. At the beginning of the semester after the training in industry takes place the student must complete an oral presentation about his/her time in industry organized by the representative for the training period in industry. (3) The student must complete a paper (see Section 15 (4.3) GESR-ECS-BM) about his/her time in industry which is assessed by the professor responsible for counselling the student. Assessment takes place in accordance with Section 9 (GESR-ECS-BM Section 18 Clause 4). 5 credit points are awarded for the successful completion of the paper. 6 Types of classes and attendance The types of classes are described in Section 11 of the General Examination and Study Regulations for Bachelor and Master Study Course Programmes (GESR-ECS-BM). For all types of classes including compulsory attendance the attendance is fulfilled when the student has attended all the class hours determined for the class form. In addition to the General Examination and Study Regulations for Bachelor and Master Study Course Programmes (GESR-ECS-BM) attendance at the event project is compulsory. 7 Modules and credit points (1) The Bachelor examination is an examination completed during the degree programme. It is made up of the modules and elective modules together with the study, pre-examination and examination credits, the training period in industry (Section 5) the additional presentation (Section 5 (2)) and the Bachelor thesis (Section 8). All lessons of the whole study programme during the different semesters can be found in the following tables.

The respective examination type and the class type are made known when the compulsory elective module is announced. The compulsory elective module can be chosen from the modules offered by the Department, which are defined as compulsory elective modules by the Chair of the Examination Committee. These compulsory elective modules are made known to the students through a notice. The student can also choose as compulsory elective modules subjects offered by other departments of the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences. This requires written approval by the Chair of the Examination Committee. The student must make an official application to the Chair of the Examination Committee before the start of the semester in which he/she wishes to take the credit. The approval can be refused only if the other Departments do not agree the attendance for the lesson because of loss of student capacity for this lesson or if the lesson is not equivalent in terms of the hours per week, the credit points or the contents of the lesson as described in sentences 1 and 2. The students must be offered at least three modules as compulsory elective modules each semester through a notice. (6) The lessons and examinations are offered in the English language. Some specific lessons can be taken in the German language and are made known to the students through a notice. These lessons are part of the German Informations- und Elektrotechnik study course programme. The lessons and examinations of this course programme are offered in the German language. The students can select up to 40 credit points taken in the German language. Examinations taken in the German language will be marked on the Bachelor certificate. 8 Thesis (1) The Bachelor thesis is a theoretical, programming, empirical and/or experimental final project with a written part which is completed as part of a project during the degree programme. Students should show in the Bachelor project that they are able to work on a problem from the scientific, applied or vocational fields of work of this degree programme and at the same time define them within the interdisciplinary contexts. (2) Students can apply for their Bachelor thesis if all examinations are passed. The number of nonpassed examinations must be less than or equal to 15 credit points. The processing time for the Bachelor thesis is three months. (3) A passed Bachelor thesis awards twelve credit points while the accomplished colloquium awards three credit points. The grade of the colloquium is included in the grading of the Bachelor thesis grade. To calculate the overall grade the graduate points of the individual grading of the Bachelor thesis are each multiplied by Examination participation
8 8 Study, pre-examination and examination credits from the second academic year of the Bachelor of Engineering degree programme can be acquired before all examinations of the first study year have been passed only if the respective student has all but a maximum of three study, pre-examination or examination credits needed to pass all examinations of the first study year. 10 Grading examination and study credits (1) The total grade number is made up of the total of graduate points for the examination credits of all examinations of all study semesters multiplied by their weighting according to Section 7 and the graduate points of the individual grading of the Bachelor thesis multiplied by their weighting according to Section 8 (3). If students have acquired additional examination credits according to Section 18 (15) GESR-ECS-BM, these graduate points are multiplied by 5.0 and added to the total grade number. (2) The Bachelor examination is passed if all module examinations, the practice in industry and the accompanying paper and the Bachelor thesis are passed. To pass the module examinations all accompanying study, pre-examinations and examinations need to be passed. The total grade number and the total grade of a passed Bachelor of Engineering examination are as follows: Total grade number Total grade more than or exactly 4930 points excellent less than 4930 and up to 4250 points very good less than 4250 and up to 3230 points good less than 3230 and up to 2210 points satisfactory less than 2210 and up to 1700 points pass (2) The proceedings described in Section 18 (10) GESR-ECS-BM for re-examining written examinations is used only for examinations starting with the second academic year only if no request for a second examiner is applied and carried out. The proceedings described in Section 18 (11) GESR- ECS-BM are totally excluded. (3) The proceedings described in Section 18 (10) GESR-ECS-BM are allowed. The grade of the additional paper will be multiplied by 5.0 and added to the total grade number. 11 Certificate (1) Students can apply for a written confirmation of the passed study, pre-examinations and examinations of the first study year which is issued when the following requirements have been fulfilled: 1.
