Services and Processes of the Examination Commission

An extension of the Master Thesis can be requested through the Infotech Office if the claim is supported by a valid reason according to the Infotech regulations:

• Medical Problems:
  The original doctor's note with the doctor's signature is required (translated if not in english/german)
• Technical Problems:
  Hardware related issues. The professors signature is needed

The documents will then be sent to:

1. The chairman of the examination commission only in case of medical problems
2. The examiner and chairman of the examination commission in case of technical problems

Requests should be submitted without delay!

If you need to withdraw from an exam exceeding the '7-days-prior' rule, you will need permission from the chairman of the examination commission.

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.

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

Please make sure:

• the CP's match between the module taken the one you wish to replace
• the examiner of the module has signed the form* (include a course description)
• ensure these things have been done before submitting the form

*Important as the chairman of the examination commission needs their 'ok' to evaluate and accept the recognition of the modules.  Having to get these signatures after the form has been submitted only serves to delay the process.
