- For information on enrolment, please contact the study office.
- Details of current modules and courses can also be found in the course catalogue.
- Also courses of the language center of the university can also be used, if the study and examination regulation allows.
- SQ courses can be done starting from the first semester.
- To register for modules, you will be required to use the TOOL system.
- Due to the limited capacity of the SQ courses, a special enrolment procedure is used.
Every student has the opportunity to take modules from the range offered by the Language Center during their studies. It is irrelevant whether the module is a regular part of the curriculum in the bachelor’s and master’s programmes or whether the student chooses to acquire the language skills additionally. Your academic adviser for your core subject can tell you whether a module can count towards your elective area or SQ credits.

Examination plan
When you register for a module at our faculty, you automatically register for the exam and the first re-take exam for organisational reasons.
If you have met the admission requirements for the exams and do not deregister from the module and exams in due time, the first exam date in the semester is binding. You can deregister from a module and the exams in AlmaWeb no later than four weeks before the end of the lecture period. After that, you can only withdraw from an exam for an important reason. To do this, you must submit an application to the examination board and receive a written approval from them.
If you do not appear for an exam without an important reason, the exam will be considered as failed.
- You can repeat a failed exam within one year after the first examination attempt. As a rule, this takes place in the next regular examination period, when the module is offered again after one year. Please note that you are automatically registered for the first re-take exam.
- Different from this, many lecturers already offer a re-take exam in the same semester for students who have not passed the regular exam. You can decide whether you want to take this opportunity up to the day of the exam. You do not have to register for or de-register for this exam.
- If you have to sit a second re-take exam, please submit an application to the examination board responsible for your subject. If they agree to your application, you must repeat the exam at the next possible examination date.
- Important: If you have to sit a second re-take exam this semester and have not yet applied for it, please do this immediately. Without this application, you cannot sit the exams. Please also note that you have to sit the re-take exam within one year.
- If you also fail the second re-take exam, the module is considered as failed. You can replace failed compulsory elective or elective modules by passing another compulsory elective or elective module. A failed compulsory module leads to the termination of your studies.
