There is no final examination to complete your subsidiary studies. 

The sum of the module examinations make up your subsidiary subject examination (at least 60 CP in accordance with the Study Plan).

  • You have to file this application once at the beginning of your studies (mind the deadline).
  • This application form will be handed out at the information event.
  • The application form is available online from the beginning of the semester. You can submit your application by post or drop it directly in the mailbox of the Examination Office (RUW, 1st floor - foyer).

Examinations normally take place in the first three weeks of the lecture-free period.

  • Each semester, you must register for each individual examination and usually via QIS/LSF using your HRZ account by the specified deadline. If you have any questions regarding your HRZ account, please contact the HRZ (University Computing Center) directly.
