Transferring Credits

Students of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and students of the Faculty of Human Sciences are able to change the Module Context of a completed course. The prerequisite is that the course is allocated to different modules. As soon as a course has been marked as Successfully Completed ("Erfolgreiche Teilnahme"), you can change the module context.

You can transfer "successfully completed" credits to different modules by using the My Degree Programme application an your Home Screen.
