According to §14 (2) of the joint examination regulations of the faculty for Mathematics and Computer Science, each examination has to be registered via the HISPOS system no later than one week before the first academic assessment or examination associated with the relevant module.

As far as proseminars and seminars are concerned, you are only allowed to register or to withdraw within three weeks after topic assignment/preliminary meeting.

Only in exceptional cases, a delayed examination registration may be made by the study coordination but only if due to circumstances beyond your control.

Accreditation of Studies and Exam Results

The accreditation is quite easy if you consider some basic rules. It is also important to consider §19 of the Joined Exam Regulation. For the application of an accreditation, please use exclusively the following document.

Remarks
  • Please complete the form’s first page, otherwise we cannot process the application.
  • Please list the attended courses and the corresponding information on the second page. In the column “SWS”, the number of weekly teaching hours (apportioned in lecture/tutorial hours) of the respective course has to be specified. In the colum “Credits”, please specify possibly assigned credit points. If no credit points are specified, the assignment is done as definied in our ECTS-System: 1.5 credit points for one weekly teaching hour.
  • Please try to associate the courses that you want to be accredited to concrete courses as specified in our study regulations.
  • Having completed this list, please visit the lecturers teaching the respective courses at our university. In case of questions in this regard, please send an email to the examination office.
  • To accelerate the procedure of accreditation, you should provide a short overview of the course’s topics (for example in the commented university calendar or the course’s website) to each lecturer to easily verify the equivalence. Beneath an overview of the course’s topics, you may also provide a list of the literature used.
