Board of Examiners
A Board of Examiners is instated to organise and implement assessments. The Board of Examiners ensures compliance with the provisions of the study and examination regulations. The Central Examinations Office provides organisational and administrative support to the Board of Examiners.
On receipt of an application, the Board of Examiners decides on the recognition of coursework and assessments as well as any related ECTS credits earned in another subject/degree course or, as the case may be, at any other university in Germany or abroad or even outside the university setting.
