Created 11.02.2008 - 18:46

This study plan refers to the old study regulations (if you enrolled before winter term 2011). All others should have a look at the new module descriptions [1]


Please note that the following plans are only rough guidelines. Things can change - please look at the study regulations and ask the examination committee if you have any questions. The classification of courses is determined by the study commission for each semester.

Color codes:

"Minimalists"
everybody has to take these classes (Pflichtbereich)
"Intermediates"
in addition to the minimalist classes, you have to take these classes if you want to take the module examination in that subject (Wahlpflichtbereich). Classes mentioned here are only examples, In most subfields there will be more classes offered. Please look at the course lists in StudIP.
"Bachelors"
in addition to the minimalist and intermediate classes, it is recommended to take these classes if you want to write your Bachelor thesis in that subject (Wahlbereich). Classes mentioned here are only examples. In most subfields there will be more classes offered. Please look at the course lists in StudIP.
