German Grading Scheme


Plagiarism

Also a problem in engineering Plagiarism is: • Using someone else’s texts, pictures,

reports, data, solutions, whatever…. • ... without giving the source

Sources include: • Books, the internet, colleagues, …

To make it clear: • Plagiarism is illegal

The simple „if...then“ loops: • If you plagiarize...(once) • … then you fail • If you plagiarize repeatedly (=twice) • … then your academic career is over.


Some thoughts to share…

A Master‘ program in Germany

• You have to organize your courses and your life independently,

• You have to register for your courses on your own and in time,

• We challenge you from the first day on to assess given knowledge…

• …and to transfer given knowledge from one course to another

• We will show you many many aspects of microsystems related disciplines and applications to broaden your knowledge and increase the oppurtunites for an exciting career.

That means for you…

• YOU have to take the initiative to ASK, ASK and read until you understand

• WE give you the overview, YOU have to learn the details


Moreover...

Buy textbooks

Contact your mentor

Form study groups

Poke around in the laboratories

Find an MSc thesis advisor early

Stay registered

Get enough sleep

But not in my class, please


Mentoring

Every student has a faculty mentor

• A professor as a contact person

• Assigned by the Dean of Studies

Student’s contact for: • Problems, questions, clarifications, job searches, recommendations, or

just general advising


After graduation


Apply for a job

In Industry

• Find out what you like during your MSc program

• Use newspapers and the internet to monitor the market

• Visit information workshops to gather tips how to apply

• …


PhD as research assistant

Perform a research project (on your own)

Look for an open position

Apply

Get paid for the PhD project

Overtake responsibility as project assistant

Support your professor with respect to educational tasks

Duration: 3-5 years
