Special Regulations for Exams and Term Schedule

Winter semester 2021/22

In the 2021/22 winter semester, significantly more on-site teaching will be possible. New maximum room occupancy regulations apply from October 4, 2021 as well as for the first-years’ introductory events prior. If room capacity does not allow for all students to attend, teaching must be conducted in a hybrid or digital form. Courses that require on-site teaching for participants to acquire the necessary competences (lab internships) are exempt from the maximum occupancy rules as an exception. The normal, pre-pandemic occupancy rules apply to these courses only while adhering to the German 3G rule (vaccination, recovery or negative test) and to the hygiene regulations.

It is compulsory to employ contact tracing in all courses via the Corona Warn App (contact tracing)

  • For lecture halls, the following seating arrangements apply: One seat must remain free between each participant and only every second row of seats may be occupied.
  • In facilities, rooms and also when the minimum distance of 1.50 meters cannot be observed at your own seat, it is compulsory to wear a mask. However, we recommend that you also wear a mask when seated even if you are at a greater distance from other people.
  • All exams can take place on-site. In addition to the university's Covid safety measures, the 3G status of all participants must be verified. Everyone who participates in exams must submit proof of their vaccination, recovery or a negative test.

Details can be found in the information provided by the Rectorate and in the general FAQ.
