Important information on exam registration

SELMA: is the leading examination administration system for all degree programs in Computer Science. Registration and admission via this portal is mandatory and a prerequisite for participation in every examination (including preliminary examinations)
IMPORTANT: Module registration must take place BEFORE exam registration. The examination performance is not visible without module registration!
ONAS: Online assistant for the notification of examination topics and examiners of the basic and specialization modules of the degree programs Diplom Informatik and Master Computer Science as well as the bridge / supplementary and specialization modules in the elective area of the Master Media Computer Science program via the Examination Office
by ticket (e-mail): the examination topics and examiners are transmitted to the Examination Office for Computer Science for the following modules/examination achievements after an examination registration has been made via SELMA:
- INF-D-910 Research line
- INF-D-950 Large document
- INF-D-960 Analysis of a research topic

Submission of waivers

Deadline for submitting the waiver is 16.06.2026
After this deadline, submitted waivers can still be processed, but independent system-side examination registration cannot be guaranteed.
In principle, there is no entitlement to subsequent examination registration, even if processing is delayed until after the registration deadline due to late submission of the waiver.

Registration for examinations in the catalog modules
(PO/SO 2009/PO/SO 2010)

Catalog modules German-language degree programs:
INF-AQUA/ INF-B510/ INF-B-520/ INF-B-530/ INF-B-540/ INF-B-610/INF-D-520/
INF-D-940/ INF-VMI-1a/ INF-VMI-3a/ INF-VMI-4a/MA-PR

Catalog modules international degree programs:
DSE: INF-DSE-20-M-INT/ INF-DSE-20-E-ADSE/ INF-DSE-20-E-BDSE/ INF-DSE-20-LN-DE/INF-DSE-20-LN-EN
CMS: CMS-CLS-ELG/ CMS-CLS-ELV/ CMS-CMA-ELG/ CMS-CMA-ELV1/ CMS-CMA-ELV2/ CMS-VC-ELG/ CMS-VC-ELV1/ CMS-VC-ELV2/ CMS-EE-EL1/ CMS-EE-EL2/ CMS-CE-EL1/ CMS-CE-EL2/ CMS-LM-BAS/ CMS-LM-MOC/ CMS-LM-AI/ CMS-LM-ADV

Registration procedure in SELMA:
1. module registration (does not apply if module registration has already been carried out in previous
semesters - module registration takes place once)
2. course registration (in SELMA = K-numbers) - must always be carried out, as
otherwise examination registration is not possible
3. exam registration - the course registration does not replace the exam registration

Important: Check the exam registration after completing the registration process within the respective registration period!

Please note: Profile modules:
Course registration via SELMA is no longer possible or necessary for these modules. Registration procedure as shown below:
1. module registration (does not apply if module registration has already been made in previous
semesters)
2. exam registration: e.g. complex practical course in cryptography and data security is offered by the Chair of Privacy and Security:
Exam registration = research project Privacy & Security
3. exam registration: is not necessary, as examiners = chair (are already stored in SELMA)

If you have already registered in lists, OPAL or ONAS during the lectures, this does NOT replace exam registration via SELMA.
Only the Studium Generale and language courses are excluded. Registration via SELMA is not possible here.
If technical problems occur during online registration or if it is not possible to register for an examination, please contact the Examination Office for Computer Science within the respective registration period with a full-page screenshot of the screen via ticket.
Due to the large number of compulsory elective modules, overlapping dates cannot be avoided.
Examination registration is only possible if you are enrolled in the respective degree program.

Registration for language courses and language examinations

You must register for the language courses and the associated language examinations in SELMA(information and instructions). After completing the respective examination, you have the option of downloading a language certificate/certificate of achievement via SELMA. Have this confirmed by the TUDIAS staff (usually digitally signed) and submit it to the Examination Office for Computer Science by the end of the semester for the respective module of your degree program.

Old degree programs (PO/SO 2009; PO/SO 2010):
After completing the examination, submit the language certificate confirmed by TUDIAS by ticket to the Examination Office for Computer Science.
