• End-of-semester examination: Takes place at the end of the semester or in the first weeks of the semester vacation, is planned by the departments, must be registered for by students via myStudies, is always graded, can be repeated by students at the start of the next semester, provided this is stated to be possible, and students register for it again.
• Graded semester performance: Takes place during the semester or the semester vacation (e.g. Master thesis), does not have to be registered for by students, but they do have to enrol for the course unit, is always graded.
• Ungraded semester performance: Takes place during the semester or the semester vacation (e.g. talk), does not have to be registered for by students, but they do have to enrol for the course unit, is always ungraded (passed, not passed).

If there is no performance assessment, please report this to the persons responsible in the department. Only they can enter this accordingly. If there is no performance assessment, no ECTS credits are awarded.

Performance assessments which form part of an examination block or a 2-semester course must be session examinations. In these cases the type of performance assessment cannot be changed.
