Registration of Master's modules in advance

Whether and to what extent you may take Master's modules in advance can be found in the examination regulations of your Bachelor's study program (tip: search for the term "master").

This procedure applies to all study programs except additional Master's teaching qualifications. If you wish to take Master's modules in advance for a teaching degree, please contact the contact person responsible for you at the Student Service and Examinations Office.

1. Application for all study programs
You cannot not register to take Master's modules in advance via your curriculum (i.e. not via the application "my study program"), but via the application "all study programs".

2. Here you select the corresponding degree Master of... and in it the master's degree program consecutive to your degree program, e.g. Master of Science Mechanical Engineering. You are now in the curriculum of your chosen Master's program.

3. You can now select the exam you want to register for.
4. Then select your Bachelor's curriculum via the curriculum assignment application.

5. Click on: Exam registration. Here comes the most important step. Select:

• Select study program: Your Bachelor of… study program
• Select curriculum context: Take Master's modules in advance

You can now register.

You can manage your registration in the following ways, e.g.: 

1. Via the application "My Examination Dates"
2. The easiest way to do this is to view the transcript of records, where your registered exam appears under the heading "Master's Modules Taken in Advance".
3. You can also view your examination dates via "My Study Program", curriculum, in the "Examination Date" filter.

Master's modules taken in advance will not be credited to your Bachelor's study program, but to your Master's degree. You can find out more about this in the examination regulations.

For general information, please refer to the Registering for Examinations guide.
