Seminar
At the end of the pre-semester, there is a common registration or application period for seminars at the School of Business, Economics and Information Systems . Within this period, you can apply for a seminar place via the respective online form of the individual business informatics chairs. Please note that you can only apply for a seminar in the Information Systems department. The coordination of the allocation of places in cases of hardship is carried out internally between the Information Systems Chairs.
Abschlussarbeit
For final theses, the chairs have individual requirements and registration periods (e.g. registration only possible at the end of the previous semester, registration also possible during an ongoing semester). Please refer to the information provided by the individual chairs.
No. The sum of the courses you take in the ‘Interdisciplinary specialisation’ area must be less than or equal to 15 ECTS. It is not possible to credit the ECTS of a course only proportionately. You should therefore plan exactly which courses you would like to include here and register these courses in good time (see ‘How do I include courses in the “Interdisciplinary specialisation” area’).
In principle, it is also possible to include courses that are already defined in the module catalogue in other areas in the area of interdisciplinary specialisation, provided that the minimum number of ECTS to be achieved has already been reached in the area in which the course in question is listed.
However, a corresponding application must be made and approved before registering for the examination. A subsequent rebooking of already booked examination achievements in the area of interdisciplinary specialisation is not possible.
You can (with the exception of the areas ‘Interdisciplinary specialisation’ or ‘Courses from other business and economics degree programmes’) take more than the minimum required number of ECTS credits in an area. A course listed in the module catalogue, which is classified in an area for which the minimum number of ECTS has already been achieved, can therefore be taken additionally as long as not all the necessary examinations have already been completed. For example, you can take 15 ECTS in the field of methods and all courses passed will also be shown on your certificate and used to determine your Master's grade.
No, this is not possible because ZKK courses are not Master's courses.
If a course can be credited in different areas according to the module catalogue, you must select the correct area in which the course is to be credited when registering in Campusportal or when registering at the department. Please plan your studies in accordance with the regulations applicable to your degree so that it is not necessary to transfer credits. The StuPo does not provide for any rebookings. This means that you are not entitled to have any errors made in the allocation during enrolment corrected.
- The StuPos generally do not provide for rebooking, so this is not possible without restrictions. You must register in the campus portal in the area in which you want to have the course permanently (and not just for a specific moment).
- If a course can be credited in several areas, plan your studies in such a way that rebooking is not necessary, taking into account the regulations applicable to the degree.
- As an exception, the Examinations Office will only make rebookings once and at the end of the degree programme and only if the course can be credited.
- Please also note that the allocation of courses to areas may change during the course of your degree programme. Rebookings will only be made in accordance with the allocation valid at that time.
- However, credits that have already been booked are protected. This means that you do not have to worry that a new allocation of a course will change your existing allocation.
