For regular students, the online catalogue lists all necessary courses according to standard study plans. For exchange students, however, the website is primarily important for showing up-to-date schedules (times & location).

Or can search by yourself, switch to English by clicking on the English flag at the right top of the screen and then "search for lectures" on the left menu. Chairs' websites (specific information, registration for seminars)
Select Overlapping courses? Regardless of mandatory attendance or not, our experience has shown that actual attendance and the passing of a course do have a positive correlation, meaning that students attending a class have a higher probability to pass. On these grounds, it is advised to not choose overlapping courses.
Language Courses at Language Center and SBE
The vast majority of language courses is organized by our university's language center. Additionally, SBE offers language courses. However, those are partly held in German and therefore require a German level of B2 according to CEFR.Other courses at university

If you are interested in taking such courses, please contact the respective exchange coordinator of your faculty of choice. All administrative matters of registration, exams and transcripts then follows the rules of the respective faculty. This means, that after completing a UM-cours, you will need to ask for a certificate that states your grade.MASTER-Course Availability For BACHELOR-Level Students
