Registration for Module Examinations

• The regulations for exam registration are determined by the department to which the module belongs. The procedures presented here apply to mathematics modules.
• You can only register for examinations electronically once you have registered with the department.
• Students who cannot register in the department of mathematics should use the examination registration form.
• Examination registrations are only possible within the predetermined examination registration deadlines.
• There are also deadlines for withdrawing from examination registrations (if withdrawal is possible at all).
• For certain modules, prerequisites must be fulfilled before you can register for an examination. You can find these in the module handbook for your degree program in the document archive.

• Before the first examination date, at the start of the registration period, the electronic examination registration is opened in BASIS.

Exception:
The Additional Modules F5X2 and F5X3 of the Master's study program Mathematics can only be registered by form. The reason for this is that the current lecturer must confirm the difference in content with the module already completed or registered.

• Please follow the instructions in How to Register for Exams in BASIS.
• If an exercise is part of the lecture and you have not yet passed it, you will be automatically registered for the exercise, but only overnight. Please make sure you check the next day whether this has happened.
• Please observe the deadlines for the beginning and the end of the registration period as well as for the withdrawal from the exam.
• It is not possible to register separately for the second examination date only. Those who did not register before the first examination date or were not admitted cannot take part in the second examination date either.

Exception:
For specific lectures, the examination regulations allow a free attempt for grade improvement.

The registration period for the module examinations of lecture course modules begins

• in the summer semester on June 1^st,
• in the winter semester on December 1^st.

The end of the examination registration period depends on the type of examination. The deadline ends

• for written exams two weeks before the scheduled first examination date,
• for oral exams two weeks before the end of the lecture period.

After the end of the registration period, you can no longer register for the module examination and cannot take part in either the first or the second date.

Lecture course modules with problem sessions (V1 to V4):

The Examination Board announces that in all lecture modules to which problem sessions are assigned, the prerequisite for participation in the examination is the successful completion of the problem sessions.

• Registration for the exam is subject to the reservation that you have successfully completed the problem sessions.
• You will only be admitted to the module examination once you have successfully completed the problem sessions.
• The result of the exercise classes should be entered in BASIS at least one week before the respective examination date.
• If you do not receive admission, we will delete your exam registration. You can track this in BASIS:
  - If the exercise is entered as passed, the reservation of the examination registration is lifted.
  - If the exercise is not passed, the examination registration disappears.

• Please note that once you have passed the exercise class, you will of course no longer see it in BASIS under "Info about registered exams". However, you can find all achievements at any time under "Transcript of Records".

Lecture course modules without problem sessions (V5):

• You are admitted to the examination when you register, there are no prerequisites.

You can withdraw from the module examination of a lecture module up to one week before the first examination date.

This deadline relates to

• the scheduled examination date for written exams,
• the individually assigned examination date for oral exams.

Exception:
It is not possible to withdraw from the compulsory registration for repeat examinations of the compulsory lectures in the Bachelor's program Mathematik.

Procedure:

• For written examinations, the withdrawal must be made in BASIS in the same way as the examination registration.
• For oral examinations, a general withdrawal period is set in BASIS. Therefore, please try to withdraw there first. If this is no longer possible, please use the deregistration form.

Withdrawal always refers to the entire module examination. If you have withdrawn from the examination, you cannot take part in either the first or second examination date.

Repetition at the second examination date of the same semester:

• If you have not passed the examination with attempt number 4 on the first date or have not appeared, then the module examination is finally failed. Further examination attempts are not possible.

Exception:
If a compulsory lecture course module in the Bachelor program Mathematik has been finally failed an oral supplementary examination may be requested once (i.e. for one of the six modules).

• If you fail the exam with an odd attempt number (1/3) on the first date or do not appear, you will automatically be registered to retake the exam on the second date. You cannot deregister from this.
  If you did not pass the examination with attempt number 2 on the first date or did not appear, you will not be automatically registered for the second examination date. If you would like to take the next module examination with attempt 3 on the second date, you must contact the Bachelor-Master Office Mathematics and ask for your registration!

Exception:
If the lecture is a compulsory lecture course module in the Bachelor program Mathematik, you are obliged to retake the examination at the next possible date. In this case, you will therefore be compulsorily registered by us for the 3^rd attempt on the second date without the possibility of withdrawal.

Repetition of a module examination in another semester:

• A failed module examination of a lecture course module can be repeated once, i.e. there are a total of 4 examination attempts.
• Whether and when you repeat the module examination is up to you.

Exception:

If the lecture is a compulsory lecture course module in the Bachelor program Mathematik , you are obliged to retake the examination at the next possible date. Therefore, if you fail a module examination in these modules, you will be compulsorily registered by us one year later to retake the examination without the possibility of withdrawal.

According to the examination regulations, a passed examination may not be repeated. However, in both the Bachelor's program Mathematik and the Bachelor's program Teacher Training Mathematics, students in certain semesters are granted a free attempt to improve their grades.

This means that you may take the relevant examination on the second examination date of a semester even if you have already passed on the first examination date. The grade of the module examination is then the better of the two individual grades.

This rule applies in the Bachelor's program Mathematik exclusively to students in the 1^st semester for the lecture courses

• V1G1 Analysis I
• V1G3 Lineare Algebra I
• V1G5 Algorithmische Mathematik I.

In the Teacher Training Bachelor's program Mathematik the rule applies to students in the 1^st study year for the lecture courses

• MB01/ MB02 Grundzüge der Mathematik I / II
• MB05 Lineare Algebra

and for students in the 1^st and 2^nd study year for the lecture courses

• MBV1G1 Analysis I
• MBV1G3 Lineare Algebra I.

You must register for the free attempt examination yourself in BASIS. The registration deadline

• begins one week after the 1^st examination date,
• ends one week before the 2^nd examination date.

• If a compulsory lecture course module in the Bachelor program Mathematik has been finally failed the Bachelor's examination has been finally failed. This leads to the loss of the right to take examinations and to de-registration from the degree program.
• To prevent this from happening, you have the option of applying for a further examination for one of the six modules.
• This takes place orally and can only be graded with 4.0 (pass) or 5.0 (fail).
• The application must be submitted to the Bachelor-Master Office Mathematics within two weeks of the entry of the examination results in BASIS.

Seminar modules:

• In a seminar your graded examination consists of the seminar talk.
• Your examination is dated on the day on which you gave your talk.
• As a rule, your grade will only be entered once the seminar has ended and you were present during the seminar (see Admission).

Practical training courses:

• In a practical training course, your graded examination consists of the project work and your presentation.
• In the Practical Teaching Course the project work must be completed in the form of a portfolio.
• The examination of a practical training course is dated on the day on which you have completed the last performance associated with the course.
• In most cases, the final performance is either your presentation or the portfolio or report that you submit.
• A practical training must be completed in the semester in which it is registered for examination. Therefore, all related work must be completed by the last day of the semester, i.e. by March 31^st in the winter semester and by September 30^th in the summer semester.

Seminars:

• The coursework of a seminar module consists of attendance at the seminar and the written preparation of the seminar presentation.
• Therefore, your seminar performance can only be assessed if you were regularly present in the seminar, otherwise you will not be admitted to the module examination.

Practical trainings:

• In practical training courses there is no coursework, with your registration you are admitted to the module examination.

• According to the examination regulations, it is not possible to withdraw from seminars and practical training courses.
• If you are unable to attend the seminar or practical training course due to illness or for other reasons for which you are not responsible, please contact the Bachelor-Master Office Mathematics.

• The examination of a seminar or practical training course can be repeated once if you fail.
• It is up to you to decide when to retake the examination.
• It is up to you to decide whether at all you repeat a failed examination of an elective module.

In the case of an external internship, you need to get active before you can register for the moduel examination:

• You find an internship position with mathematical relevance in a company.
• You find a lecturer from mathematics as an examiner for the external internship.

Not only you, but also the examiner must confirm this by signing the form Registration for an External Internship.

• Please enter the semester in which you take the last part of your exam as the semester of registration. This is normally the submission of the report or the date of your presentation.
• You can register for an external internship at any time, there is no fixed deadline.

For additional modules of the Master's degree program Mathematics, the difference in content to the module with the same module code that you already passed or registered for must be certified. Therefore, you cannot register online for the examinations of these modules.

Please use the form Application for an Additional Module. This must be signed by both you and the teacher of the current course.

It is also possible to take two examinations for modules with identical module codes in the same semester:

• Register for one of the two examinations in BASIS.
• Then submit the application form for the second exam.

The same deadlines apply for the registration of additional modules as for the original modules.

• As a student of the Teacher Training program, you will also take examinations in your second teaching subject and in educational sciences.
• Please note that the rules for registering for examinations may there differ from those in mathematics.
• You should therefore check the examination pages of your second subject and of the BZL to find out about the procedures.

Students of the subject-specific study programs can credit courses from other programs at the University of Bonn towards their degree as part of the free electives. If you are planning to do this please note the requirements:

• Only modules that do not overlap in contents with mathematics modules are permitted.
• In Master Mathematics, the module in question must also come from a Master's degree program.
• Find out beforehand at the Bachelor-Master Office Mathematics if the desired module is permissible.

IMPORTANT:

• The decision as to whether you may take part in an examination as a non-subject-related student is made in the department to which the module is assigned.
• Therefore, please enquire there in good time whether you are allowed to take an examination.
• The procedure and rules for registering for examinations are also determined by the department concerned. They usually differ from those for mathematics.
