Recognition of Examinations
The recognition of examinations is regulated by the Universities Act 2002 § 78 Abs. 1.
Dr. Cezary Kaliszyk is the Associate Dean of Studies (Studienbeauftragter für Informatik) responsible for the Bachelor and Master Programmes, the Supplementary Programme Computer Science and the Teaching Training Programme Computer Science. The Dean of Studies of the Faculty of Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics (MIP) Univ.-Prof. Dr. Thomas Franosch is responsible for the Doctoral Programme.
The forms Recognition of exams (Ansuchen um Anerkennung von Prüfungen) and the Supplementary Sheet are available on the website of the respective study programme:
- BA Computer Science 2019W
- BA Computer Science 2007W
- MA Computer Science 2007W
- MA Computer Science 2021W
- MA Software Engineering 2021W
- PhD Computer Science 2009W
- BA Lehramt Computer Science BEd 2015W
- MA Lehramt Computer Science MEd 2018W
- Lehramt Computer Science Mag.rer.nat. 2001W
- Supplementary Programme Computer Science 2019W
A recognition is not required for courses that are completed according to an earlier curriculum and stated in an equivalence list. The equivalences are shown in lfu:online.
The exams can be transferred by the student. See lfu:online Hilfe/FAQ
Information about the allocation of exams in lfu:online: provisional allocation
Submit the completed application including all required documents:
- Application form - signed on both sides
- Supplementary sheet 'Beiblatt' (filled in and signed)

- by email to lehre-informatik@uibk.ac.at. The signature of the applicant (Antragsteller/in) is also required on the page 'Niederschrift'.
Notification of the decision by email.
Automated notification when the exam is recorded by the Examination Office. Since the processing of notifications takes a certain amount of time, recognitions are not immediately visible in LFU:online.
Courses that are completed during the Computer Science studies may be used individually. In this case a confirmation of allocation (Zuordnungsbestätigung) is required:
- Informal email to lehre-informatik@uibk.ac.at
- Indication about the desired allocation (allocation for elective modules according to the curriculum: indication of the specific elective module out of EM 1-20, if possible from the same research group)
- Required documents: Transcript of Records ‘Bestätigung des Studienerfolges’ of the respective examinations, Admission Record ‘Studienblatt’
Examples:
BA Computer Science 2007W: 703045 QSP Lab PS 2 (5 ECTS) -> Elective Module 12: Software Quality (5 ECTS)
MA Computer Science 2007W: 703800 + 703801 Computer Haptics VO 2 + PS 2 (10 ECTS) -> Elective Module 2: Computer Vision (10 ECTS)
Questions concerning Computer Science study:
