Clarifications about the courses
Generally, all courses are open to exchange students. Course attendance in the departments of Architecture and Landscape Planning is limited, though. Additionally, access to courses of the double degree/master program "Innovation Management, Entrepreneurship and Sustainability" (IMES) is restricted.Most of the courses (90%) are taught in German but we also offer a number of English taught courses (subject to change). The course offerings vary from semester to semester but usually courses that are offered during one summer or winter semester will be offered again the next summer or winter semester. The final course list is only available shortly before the semester starts, i.e. in late February/March (summer semester) and late August/September (winter semester).
