Easy Enrolment in 4 Steps

①

Timetable of lecturers: Find the classes you require by their module code, e.g. AA03#01.

 

②

Online registration: Register online a few weeks before the start of term. The online registration allows us to rightly estimate capacities and does not guarantee you a place in a seminar.

 

③

First session: Places are assigned in the first week of class. Therefore, even if you did not manage to secure a place in the online registration, you should go to class in the first week.

 

④

Enrolment: Enrolment (“Belegung”) starts in the third week of term. It is your final chance to decide if you want to take a class.
