First semester induction days

Dear first semester students,

Welcome to Bamberg!

Every semester, one week before the start of the lecture period, the first semester introduction days take place. You will receive general information about studying at the University of Bamberg and specific information about your degree programme as part of a subject introduction and tutorials.

The First Semester Induction Days will take place in the winter semester 2024/2025 from 7 April to 10 October 2024 at the University of Bamberg. To make it easier for you to start your studies, subject introductions, tutorials and timetable advice will be offered during these days. 

During the first semester introductory days, subject representatives and tutors will be on hand to support you. Lectures, seminars and tutorials usually start on Monday, 14 October 2024.

General information about starting your degree programme

Structure of your study programme

Module handbook (MHB), study recommendation and examination regulations

Student counselling in economics (all CEP and EES degree programmes)

Exam registration

  • Registration deadlines for centrally organised examinations can be found on the website of the Examination Office
  • Registration deadlines for decentrally organised examinations may be set by the respective chairs themselves
  • IMPORTANT, as no examination can be taken without punctual and valid registration via FlexNow and thus no ECTS can be acquired
  • i.e. if you forget to register for an examination, you will have to repeat the lecture/seminar in the next semester and, if necessary, repeat any work you have already completed.
