Requirement
Active lecture and seminar participation + presentation on selected topic -> StudIP @
5.04.6611 Seminar: Advanced Optical Spectroscopy. Assignments are based on the 

self-chosen topic and demonstrated competence in the related field.

Exam
There’ll be a final oral presentation on a chosen topic (ca. 25 min) at the end of the lecture
period.

Gradin
Grading is based on the oral presentation, the slides, comments, defense of your
presentation in the discussion, multiple-choice questions, and an active participation in each
