Almost all bachelor’s programmes require students to complete extension curricula (EC) in addition to the regular compulsory and elective subjects. An EC is a predifined module group of up to 30 ECTS credits. The required number of ECTS credits is defined in the curriculum of your degree programme.
In order to complete an EC, you must first register for the EC in u:space. You will be able to register for individual courses of the EC after having passed the STEOP.
Nearly all degree programmes offer extension curricula. Unless otherwise specified, you may freely choose from the range of EC offered.
You can also complete alternative extensions (AE) of a number of 15 ECTS instead of an EC in most bachelor's degree programmes..
- If you have questions about the content of an EC and the recognition of examination results from an EC, please get in touch with the studies service unit (SSS)/studies service center (SSC) responsible for the EC.
- If you have questions about the recognition of an EC for your degree programme, please contact the SSS/SSC responsible for your degree programme.
