Dates

The Information Processing course is offered every winter semester. Please refer to the lecture announcement for the start of lectures and lecture times.

Examination

The examination is offered twice a year during the lecture-free period. The exact dates are announced on the homepage and in Moodle.

All students are required to take part in the internship or to hand it in. The grade for the oral examination will only be forwarded to the Examination Office after successful submission of the tasks to be completed as part of the internship.

Depending on the subject, it may be necessary to register via the Examinations Office. The date shown during registration is only a placeholder and does not correspond to the examination date. The final registration for the oral examination takes place at the chair with Ms Grabotin, room FE.1.02. She has lists for various examination days, in which students who are interested in an examination must register. On the respective examination day, all students who have registered for that day should appear at 08:45 with Mrs Grabotin so that the times of the individual examinations can be announced.

 

Online community Moodle

The course is also available online. All students at the University of Wuppertal can register free of charge on the Moodle learning platform and access additional teaching materials. This includes, for example, course-related tests and an online forum where questions can be asked and answered online.
