Important for Master of Building Science Students:

• This lecture is part of Modul 1/first semester of the curriculum of Master of Building Science.. Modul 1 needs to be sucessful completed to be able to attend certain courses of the second semester. Therefore, please ensure to tfinish the course in time!

Important for students not enrolled in the Master of Building Science curriculum:

• Interested students should send an email to lecture2593@tuwien.ac.at to be registered.
• The course should only be taken, if you are interested in the topic (not "only" due to its language)..

attendance, protocols, exam
