In the case of a change of degree programme with simultaneous placement in a higher semester, the following must be taken into account:
Whether and to what extent the study and examination achievements gained at the previous university can be recognised when changing to a similar or different degree programme at a higher education institution (university or university of applied sciences) is at the discretion of the respective receiving higher education institution. Classification and recognition is generally carried out by the relevant examination board.
You should also inform yourself in advance about the admission requirements (e.g. existence of an aptitude test) of the desired degree programme.
If you would like to have your study and examination achievements recognised, please submit a written application for recognition to the Examination Committee, to be submitted to the Examination Office. You can download the relevant application form below.
This application must state which examination achievements of the desired degree programme you would like to have recognised by examination achievements already taken. Corresponding proof of examination achievements as well as module descriptions with the learning outcomes (= competences that students have acquired after successful completion of the module) must be enclosed with the application.
