The final documents will be issued by the examination office Garching, including the "grading table", which shows your final grade and predicate in relation to the graduates of the last two years. The "grading table" carries its own page header, is numbered separately and will not be referenced in the other documents.
The Grading Table provides a general overview of the final grades in the M.Sc. Programs in Physics. In addition, students in the Master's programs can receive a ranking for the first four semesters at the Dean's office
Semester Ranking in the Master’s Programs of PP Physics
Starting 2018 we issue semester rankings according to the new TUM default system. At first students SS 2018 may obtain such a ranking.
For rankings of SS 2022 and later, students may download a digital copy directly in the application "Rankings" of the Digital School Services. If you need a paper copy with stamp and signature, contact the student's office in the Physics Department. Please keep in mind that all exams from this semester need to be finalized. Hence, semester rankings for summer semester are available not before mid-November regularly and rankings for the winter semester not before mid-May.
Ranking method
The modules included in the ranking for a semester and the credits expected after the respective semester are given in the table in the section for the study program below.
As ranking parameter the average of the included, graded module exams the student passed weighted by credits is calculated. If the student did not achieve the credits expected in this semester in the included modules missing credits are included in the ranking parameter with the virtual grade 4,1.
All four Physics Master’s programs are combined to obtain a single Ranking. Separate rankings are created for the Master’s programs Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics as wells as Quantum Science & Technology. In each case we form two students cohorts from the students for the semester ranking:
- advanced studies/course phase (first year)
all students in semesters 1 and 2 - research phase (second year)
all students in semesters 3 and 4
As reference we use all students enrolled or on-leave in the respective semester at the registration deadline for the first examination period of the semester (15th of January in WS, 30th of June in SS).
Included Modules in the Master's Programs Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics as well as Quantum Science & Technology
| Semester | included modules | credits expected |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | modules from course phase (first year) | 30 CP |
| 2 | modules from course phase (first year) | 60 CP |
| 3 | all modules included in the Master’s program | 90 CP |
| 4 | all modules included in the Master’s program | 120 CP |
