Regulations Governing Bachelor's and Master's Studies

The framework ordinance for the Faculty of Science's Bachelor's and Master's degree programs establishes the general terms of Bachelor's and Master's degree programs at the Faculty of Science. The program regulations for the Faculty of Science's Bachelor's and Master's degree programs contain detailed information on all the programs offered. They comprise a general section, annexes, and module catalogues with full details of the regulations governing the programs (structure, modules, examinations and credits). The appendices contain an equivalency table showing which modules are equivalent in terms of credits and failed attempts. The framework ordinance is superordinate to the program regulations.  

All regulations are only available in German.

In addition, the institutes and departments also publish guides to their programs on their websites. However, the framework Ordinance and the program regulations are legally binding.
