According to §5(6) Study Regulation 2019:

  • An elective (Supplementary modules only!) which has not yet been passed may be changed on up to two occasions by making a declaration to the Examination Office.
  • This means the student is no longer obligated to retake examinations from the previous elective in those occasions.
  • This declaration can only be submitted providing the student has not yet lost the right for further examination for the Information Technology (INFOTECH) master’s degree program and has not yet passed all the examinations required to graduate. The previous module which was changed cannot be continued at a later stage.

Note: Credits that have been counted towards your bachelor degree/grade cannot be recognized. 

If you are switching between master programs, or have completed some master modules during a semester abroad you can apply to have completed courses counted towards your INFOTECH degree.

Please fill out this form and submit it to office@infotech.uni-stuttgart.de
Include PA: in the subject line.

Please make sure:

  • the CP's match between the module taken and the one you wish to replace
  • the examiner of the module has signed the form* (include a course description)
  • please include transcripts for the original courses
  • the points listed above are completed before submitting the form

*Important as the chairman of the examination commission needs the examiners 'ok' to evaluate and accept the recognition of the modules.  It is the responsibility of the student to gather the signatures from the examiners.
