Projects with »Team Supervision« component
Projects with »Team Supervision« component are carried out with 12 + 6 ECTS. The 12 ECTS are awarded for the project work, the 6 ECTS for the team supervision. Team supervision is an additional course that introduces students to the dynamics of teamwork, teaches analytical methods for improving teamwork (e.g. role definition, conflict recognition and management) and thus supports the teams in their work.
The »Team Supervision« component relates to the specific team project to which it is linked. Therefore, these projects can only be selected with the »Team Supervision« component as a complete package. Otherwise it could happen that some team members take the »Team Supervision« component and others do not. This would render the »Team Supervision« component relatively useless.

Other Guided Projects
The following projects are carried out as by project definition, without a »Team Supervision« component. (For the same reason as described above, they cannot be combined with a "Team Supervision" part - in that case, some team members would participate in Team Supervision, and others not).
