Examination regulations

This page briefly summarizes the most important points of the current examination regulations. No legal claim can be derived from it. Module handbook and exam times supplement the special examination regulations of the IME degree program.

Missing ex ams

An examination is graded as "insufficient" (5.0) or "failed" in the case of:

  • Absence without valid reasons
  • Withdrawal without valid reasons after the start of an examination
  • Failure to hand in an examination paper on time

An examination may be graded "unsatisfactory" in the case of:

  • deception or use of unauthorized aids
  • Exclusion from the examination due to disruption

In case of illness, a certificate must be submitted to the chairman of the examination board via the examination office immediately, i.e. by the 3rd day after the examination date at the latest. This must contain at least the following information:

  • Duration of the illness,
  • Dates of medical treatment,
  • the nature and extent of the illness, stating the findings of fact made by the doctor on the basis of his or her own observations (it is not necessary to state the diagnosis), and
  • Effects of the illness on the examinations.

Registration for examinations

Every examination must be registered (including "successful participation"). Registration takes place within a certain period of time via the PC pools. The registration is binding. Deregistration from an examination is only accepted up to 10 days before the respective examination.

Final thesis

The Bachelor thesis must be registered at the earliest after reaching 150 credits and at the latest 365 days after passing the last module examination. The topic can only be returned once and only within the first four weeks of the processing time.

Processing time: 10 weeks

Assessment of examination results

  • very good                                                           1,0; 1,3
  •   good                                                                         xml-ph-0037@deepl.int
  • satisfactory                                           2.7; 3.0; 3.3
  • sufficient                                             3.7; 4.0
  • not sufficient                           5.0

In addition and independent of the respective grade, the designated credits are awarded. To determine the overall grade, the grades of the individual modules and the final thesis are multiplied by the respective credit points. The sum of the weighted grades is then divided by the sum of the credit points.

Repetition of examinations

  • Each examination can be repeated twice in case of failure.
  • A thesis graded "not sufficient" can be repeated once.
  • Repeat attempts must be made in the following semester.
  • During the course of study, an examination may be repeated in order to improve the grade. However, this exam must be passed and repeated in the following semester.
