- Students of Media informatics B.Sc.: no restriction. Note that this lecture replaces Ubiquitous Media; i.e., you cannot attend this lecture if you have previously completed Ubiquitous Media.
- Students of Media informatics M.Sc.: you can enroll in this class if you have not taken it as part of your B.Sc. (either because you have been at another university, or you were enrolled in a BSc program other than Media Informatics). If you have taken the course “Ubiquitous Media Design” previously, then you cannot take this course.
- Students of Computer science: from summer term 2020, the lecture counts as an Advanced Lecture for Bachelor/Master Computer Science, Embedded Systems and Entrep. Cypersecurity. Please refer to LSF for details on the curriculae, and version of exam.
- Students of other curricula where Interactive Systems is part of your Module Handbook (e.g. Educational Technology) and you have not taken Ubiquitous Media: You can just register for the lecture.
- Students of other curricula where Interactive Systems is not part of your Module Handbook: Decision on a case-by-case basis. Please contact Artin Saberpour for further information.
Important: Later in the semester, you have to register for the exam on HISPOS.
Note on transfer of credit from previous semesters:
- “I have successfully completed the exercises and projects of IAS in summer term 23, but have not passed the final exam. Can I just write the exam?”
Yes you can transfer your exercises and projects from IAS in summer term 23 to IAS in summer term 24, so you do not have to hand in exercises and project assignments a second time.
