Information on registering for and withdrawing from courses and examinations
Registering for courses
If you would like to take a course in the Department of Economics, you must register via STiNE.
If possible, please register during the first registration period. Only then can we ensure that you will obtain a place in your required courses. Please note the different registration period for courses of the first semester in winter semesters.
When registering for lectures with several practical courses or for seminars in the BSc in Economics, you should list as many of the practical courses / seminars as possible as preferences. This increases your chance of obtaining a place in a suitable course. If you do not prioritize enough, you may not get a place in the course.
Withdrawing from courses
If you decide not to take certain courses, you can withdraw up to the last day of the changes and correction period. Please make sure to cancel your registration so that another student may obtain the place.
Registering for examinations
If you would like to take a module or partial module examination, you must complete a binding registration during the registration periods announced by the academic office.
For each module or partial module examination in the Department of Economics, two examination dates are offered at the end of the courses, the first examination date at the end of the lecture period and the second examination date at the end of the lecture-free period, i.e. shortly before the start of the following semester. Seminars are an exception: Only one examination is possible per semester.
This may differ for courses offered by other departments. In particular, there is usually only one examination date at the end of the semester for courses offered by the Department of Socioeconomics. However, these courses are usually offered every semester, so that you also have two examination dates per year.
Please note that automatic registration for examinations is NOT possible in the Department of Economics. Even if you want to repeat an exam, you must register for the relevant exam yourself via STiNE.
Students with a minor in Economics must take into account that technical problems occasionally occur when registering for examinations (especially the second examination date) due to the different examination regulations of the major subject. In this case, please contact the responsible course and examination management in the Academic Office Economics within the regular registration periods.
Withdrawing from examinations
It is possible to register or withdraw from examinations up to 72 hours before the respective examination.
Example: If the exam takes place on 8 February from 10:15 am-11:45 am, you can (de-)register for the exam until 5 February, 10:15 am.
Please note that this regulation does not apply to exams for which no exam date is defined in STiNE (e.g. term papers). The registration and cancellation of exams without an exam date in STiNE is only possible during the course registration periods.
After instructors have entered the results for the first examination date, students who want to take the exam on the second date must register via STiNE no later than 72 hours before the second examination date. You will not be automatically registered for the second exam date.
Please note: You have three examination attempts per partial module. If you do not cancel an examination date and do not take the examination, the attempt will be marked as failed (5.0)
If you experience technical problems with the registration and deregistration in STINE, please take screenshots and contact the course and examination management responsible for your degree program..
