Studying abroad – Recognition of credits

Recognition of study credits in the Faculty of Life Sciences

We recommend that students who are planning a semester abroad and would like to have the credit points recognised consult with an advisor and plan accordingly before applying for a study place abroad. Please arrange an appointment with the international coordinator or degree course advisor (see below for contact information) to determine which courses would be suitable. As a next step, you should complete a learning agreement with the coordinator/advisor. This will serve as the legal basis for having your credit points recognised when you return.

If you have already studied at another university in Germany or are returning from a semester abroad and would like to have your credit points recognised, please contact the examinations committee for your degree course  to determine which courses you can receive credit for.
