The control of success takes place in the form of partial examinations (according to §4(2), 1-3 SPO) on the courses of the module, amounting to a total of 9 LP. The performance review is described for each course of this module. The overall grade of the module is formed from the LP-weighted grades of the partial examinations and truncated after the first decimal place.
