myStudies: Registration of Course Units

What is a course unit?

A course unit consists of one or more courses that form a unit and are offered together for a performance assessment.

Register for course units

As a basic principle, there must be an registration for the corresponding course unit if a course is attended.

In addition, registration for a performance assessment is possible only if an registration exists for the course unit in question.

Limitations for Special Students and Auditors

As a general rule, it is not possible to enrol on a course marked in the Course Catalogue with a black rectangle. You will find the details on the general explanations for auditors.

Choice of course units

A search in myStudies will find the same course units as in the course catalogue.

Exception: Course units consisting of courses that are not offered in the corresponding semester (for example they take place only every two years) will be published in the course catalogue with an appropriate note; however, students cannot register for them in myStudies.

Search result x without structural information: If you check "Search result - without structural information" when searching for course units, every course unit will now be listed only once. Information concerning the respective programme will no longer be given. However, you can find the appropriate information in the detailed view of the course unit under "Offered by".

Language: Title of course unit(s)

Please note that the title of the course unit(s) in the list of courses in myStudies is always in the original language, i.e., the language in which the course is taught.

When you click on the course title in myStudies to see the full course details, you will in fact access Course Catalogue using the same language as the one you selected when you logged onto myStudies.

In other words, if you log on in myStudies in German, then the title is also in German; if you log on in English, then the shown title in Course Catalogue is in English (if it has been translated), even if the shown title in myStudies is in German. If a translation is not available, it will appear on both myStudies and Course Catalogue in German.
