Exams

Detailed information about the exams (dates, topics) will be also given on the respective webpages and moodle courses. A (preliminary) survey of the exam dates is available here.

Please note: Re-exams of modules of the previous semesters are announced on the websites of the respective courses:

• The re-exam of Human Biology I takes place on Friday, April 17th 10.00 a.m. Details can be found here. 
• Another possibility to pass the Human Biology II exam will be offered on Monday, April 13th 10.00 a.m. Details can be found here. As an alternative, especially if you want to brush up your knowledge in Human Biology II you can participate in the Human Biology II course and take the regular exam at the end of the semester.

• The re-exam in Mathematical Methods takes place on Tuesday, April 14th 10.00 a.m.

Consultation Hours

When you have questions about the Medical Photonics programme or if you want to discuss your career plans with us, please, use the consultation hours instead of writing lengthy e-mails. Many problems can be better discussed from face-to-face than via e-mail.
During the lecture period, consultation hours will usually take place bi-weekly on Fridays at 10.00 a.m. in the Seminar Room Kollegiengasse 10 after the Human Biology II couse. The exact dates can be found here.
