Procedure 

The form ‘Ansuchen um Anerkennung von Prüfungen‘ is available on the webpage of the respective study programme:

A recognition is not required for courses that are completed according to an earlier curriculum and stated in an equivalence list. The equivalence lists can be found in the respective curriculum.

Courses that are completed during the Computer Science studies may be used individually. In this case an allocation confirmation (Zuordnungsbestätigung) is required:
- Transcript of Records of the respective examination(s)
- Indication about the allocation
- Date and signature
- Submission to Anna Maria Scheiring (see below)

Submit the completed application including all required documents (Admission Record ‘Studienblatt’, Transcript of Records ‘Studienerfolgsnachweis’ of the respective examinations) to Anna Maria Scheiring (office 3M13, ICT 2nd floor). Only requests in paper format are accepted.

Oral notification (and explanation) of the decision (Form page 3)

The notification is available for inspection at the Prüfungsreferat Technik resp. at the Prüfungsreferat Innrain (Teacher Training Programme) – after approximately two weeks.

The recognised courses will be assigned in lfu:online by the Prüfungsreferat after completion of the study with the submission of the Examination Records.
