Have you ever read through your examination regulations ? They regulate the formal study requirements for your degree programme and are legally binding. In particular, you will find answers to the following questions:

• Which courses are required for me?
• Which formalities are relevant for my final module and my thesis?

Are you interested in certain modules and looking for their description so that you can prepare yourself better? The module handbook , which is also a legal component of the examination regulations, can answer the following questions about your courses, among others:

• What content is covered in this course?
• What prior knowledge is required and what is the expected workload?
• What form does the examination take and how many ECTS credits are awarded?

Here you can view your examination regulations (Bachelor/ Master) and module handbooks . Make sure that you select the most up-to-date module handbook for your examination regulations.

Here you will find information about the examination procedure for teacher training programmes. The examination regulations form the legal basis for your entire degree programme and are used to plan your studies. Various achievements must be completed as part of the degree programme.

These include achievements in the modules as well as a Bachelor's or Master's thesis. If you have already completed credits in a previous degree programme, you can apply for credit transfer via the examination board to request credit transfer.

Electrical Engineering study counselling: The Electrical Engineering Student Advisory Service is made up of students and research assistants. They have all studied Electrical Engineering or a related degree programme in Paderborn.

If you need first-hand information on the subject areas of Electrical Engineering or do not know who the right contact is for your concerns, the Electrical Engineering Student Advisory Service will be happy to help you.

PLAZ Service Office: In the PLAZ Service Office you will receive initial information on teaching-related issues, such as internships and recognition. For more in-depth counselling, the employees of the various various departments of the PLAZ are at your disposal.

You can send general enquiries to service@plaz.upb.de .

Central Student Counselling Service: The Central Student Advisory Service is your first point of contact for all questions relating to your studies - from choosing a degree programme to graduation. The team will advise you free of charge, confidentially and independently of faculties and examination and administrative institutions and will point you to other relevant offices at the university if necessary. The counselling is also independent of all examination and administrative institutions. You have the option of remaining anonymous and we will not pass on your details. Information on our understanding of counselling and data protection can be found here.

The final thesis can be written either in a specialised subject, a didactic subject or the educational sciences. For the Master's thesis, the field in which the Bachelor's thesis was written is not relevant.

Registration: The process of writing your Bachelor's or Master's thesis usually begins with registration. Here you prove that you fulfil the requirements for registration. Here you can find out how to register your thesis.

Theses in the didactics of technology (specialised didactics): If you would like to write your thesis in the didactics of technology, you can find here the department's supervision concept and suggested topics for theses to be assigned.

Final theses in Electrical Engineering (specialised science): If you would like to write your final thesis in one of the departments of Electrical Engineering, this overview help you to find a possible topic. You can also use it to familiarise yourself with the individual pages of the departments and keep up to date with the latest news.

In addition to the subjects of Electrical Engineering and Didactics of Technology, there is also your second subject area, Educational Sciences and the Bachelor's thesis, as well as German for migrant pupils.

Although the study plan is not mandatory, it can serve as a valuable guide. Although it generally makes sense to take the respective courses in the specified order, what happens if things don't go according to plan?

In this case in particular, it can help to always have an overview chart of all the required courses to hand. And if you don't lose sight of this plan and also equip yourself with the knowledge from your module handbook, you will be well prepared for every semester!

You can see which courses are taking place in the current semester directly in PAUL and register within the registration deadline. You will also find all other information there. Among other things, you can find out who the course leader is and at what times the courses take place.

The aptitude and orientation internshipand the professional internship are the practical phases in the Bachelor of Education. Further information can be found on the linked pages of the PLAZ and in your examination regulations.

Please note: in addition to these Electrical Engineering and Technology Didactics subjects, you will also have to take your second subject area, Educational Sciences and the Master's thesis.

You are not bound to the structure of the study plan in the Master's degree programme in Electrical Engineering, but it can still serve as a good orientation for your studies. You can customise your studies in the specialisations; the department pages and the current module handbook can help you with this.

In the first Master's semester, you decide on one of the two specialisations Automation Technology (AT) or Information Technology (IT) and take the corresponding compulsory course, i.e. the "Compulsory module specialisation catalogue AT" or the "Compulsory module specialisation catalogue IT". In the third and fourth semesters, you select a compulsory elective module from a series of thematically related courses, depending on your specialisation. In your examination regulations you will find a list with descriptions of the courses you can choose from. It can also provide you with a good basis for choosing your specialisation. The Electrical Engineering Student Advisory Service will also be happy to help you with this decision.

You can find out which courses are taking place in the current semester directly in the PAUL and enrol within the enrolment period. You will also find all other information there. This includes who the course leader is and the times at which they take place.

There is also a structured study plan in the affine Master's degree programme in Electrical Engineering to help you with your studies. You can customise your studies in the compulsory elective modules; the department pages and the current module handbook can help you with this.

Depending on whether your minor vocational specialisation is automation technology (AT) or information technology (IT), you can choose from different compulsory elective courses in the specialisation module. In your examination regulations you will find a list with descriptions of the courses you can choose from. It can also provide you with a good basis for choosing your minor vocational specialisation. The Electrical Engineering Student Advisory Service will also be happy to help you with this decision.

You can find out which courses are taking place in the current semester directly in the PAUL and register by the registration deadline. You will also find all other information there. This includes who the course leader is and the times at which they take place.

The practical semester is an integral part of both the 2-subject area and the affine Master's degree programme. Further information can be found on the PLAZ page on the practical semester.
