    Q&A

    • Can I take the exam again in June if I receive an inadequate assessment in February?

      You can.

    According to the rules of study, everyone has the right to join each examne twice (including a master's degree). It is also possible to pass the same exam more times, but then the Dean must give his consent.

  • Is it possible to enroll in a written master's exam and not to take it later?

    According to the regulations: a student who does not take the exam within the specified period simply loses one exam term, unless it is justified (illness, etc.).

  • However, this does not in any way imply an inadequate assessment.

  • Until when student 5. year should have all items counted?
  • Is it even before the master's thesis, or just before the chosen date of the master's exam?

    All you have to do is pass everything before the master's exam (you don't have to have all the credit to get a job).

    Answers to some of the questions that appeared in the student forum:

    • The deadline for submission of master's thesis is the end of the summer semester.

    We rely here on the Rules of Study § 49. This deadline can be postponed only because of a long-term illness or because of the inability to perform work for reasons beyond the control of the student. In order to postpone the deadline for submission of work, the student or guardian of the work submits an application with the Dean.

  • You must register for the written master's exam electronically using the diploma exams page.
