Exam appearances
How do I proceed if I can no longer register via UNIGRAZonline to repeat a course with an immanent examination character or if I have to take a board examination, which is compulsory from the third repetition?
In both cases, it is necessary to register via the Dean's Office by submitting the completed registration form on the GEWI homepage. In the case of a new participation, the "Application for assessment in an examination file" must be marked with "no", in the case of a board examination with "yes".
The student can propose the examination board. The entire examination senate must assess the student's performance. In any case, the Dean of Studies chairs the examination senate at the last possible examination.
Further information on board ex aminations can be found on the Dean's Office website.
General information on courses
The history degree program is based on a modular approach. This means that you must have already completed certain courses before you can register for others or take examinations in them. Take a look at the curriculum(Bachelor 21W / Master 18W) and ask the student advisory service if you are unsure.
How does the crediting of courses from other degree programs or from abroad work?
The Dean's Office of the Faculty of Humanities has drawn up detailed instructions on this.
Can courses from universities of applied sciences or teacher training colleges / universities be recognized as free electives (FWF)?
Yes, any course from any accredited university in Germany or abroad as well as any domestic university of applied sciences or university of applied sciences can be recognized as an FWF.
