If you miss such a course, the next chance will be one year later, when you are supposed to do your external semester. This means that you have to choose mandatory courses in the semester when they are first offered to you, otherwise you risk a delay in your studies.

a) The courses "Location Based Services" and "Wayfinding and Navigation" are the default courses to attend within this module. However, you can choose to replace one of these two courses (_either_ "Location Based Services" _or_ "Wayfinding and Navigation" ) by an eligible (thematically fitting) elective course from our course program (called "Course Location in GI Applications" in the figure above). The offering of elective courses varies from semester to semester, and courses that are eligible as an elective for this module will be shown in the corresponding course overview of the module in the course booking system (see below).

As you can see, there are four seminars, one combined lecture/exercise and two study projects ("project course") offered for this module. Please note that elective courses are often eligible for more than one module. In the course booking system they will appear in different modules as well, but of course each course can only be attended once. You need to decide in which module you want to choose such an elective course (this will depend on what other courses you are planning to attend and in which modules you still need to collect ECTS).
