Elective Modules in Master Informatics - offered in WS25/26 and in previous semesters

This is a list of lectures grouped by area with availability data, which as far as I know is not provided by TUM elsewhere in a convenient format. I hope it will be helpful to you!

Disclaimer: This site is non-official and automatically generated by fetching the data from the curriculum tree view and the data from the Courses tab in TUM online, and merging it based on course page URL. It can contain errors, or courses can be missing, for example if there is a bug in my code (has happened before), or if a new course was not yet present in the tree view at the time this list was created. Use with care (and please notify me if you find any errors).
