Examinations Office Institutes

Either the Faculty responsible for the relevant study course or the responsible Central Institute sets up an examinations committee for the organisation and conduct of module (partial) examinations. It also decides on the crediting of study periods and the recognition of examination performances and is responsible for deciding on objections to the decisions made in the examination process.

The examinations committees form a joint administration department of the examinations committees.
