Studium Integrale (SI) is an obligatory part of all bachelor degree programmes of the University of Cologne (with the exception of the Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.)). Students of these programmes are required to earn 12 credit points over the course of their bachelor studies in order to successfully complete their degree.

Extracurricular Courses (EA = Extracurriculare Angebote) are an optional part of the University of Cologne’s Master, Master and Bachelor of Education and State Examination programmes. Students of these programmes are permitted to apply for courses in this category as a voluntary addition to their studies.

Please note: With the exception of students of the Faculty of Medicine, students of all other faculties in the degree programmes listed above may apply for Extracurricular Courses themselves. Students of the Faculty of Medicine should contact the lecturer/department/faculty directly to apply for the Extracurricular Courses.

You can apply for courses within the framework of Studium Integrale or Extracurricular Courses by following the steps described in the chapter “Applying for Courses”. The following explains the steps for applying for Studium Integrale courses. Application for Extracurricular Courses works correspondingly.
