According to university regulation, this course is "prüfungsimmanent", which means that physical attendance is mandatory and in principle students must attend every class. Exceptionally, they may miss a maximum of two sessions (2 times unexcused absence is permitted). If students miss more than two sessions, this will result in a fail.

Failure to attend the first session without prior notification will result in losing the place in the course.
