Every June, the student association conducts an online survey among all students, asking, among other things, about satisfaction with courses, the organization of the program, and general conditions at the department. We collect and analyze the results, which are then discussed with professors and instructors from the department during a so-called “Thinky” session. The goal is to work together to develop concrete ideas for further improving the quality of the program. In the past, helpful ideas and suggestions from the student body have been implemented time and again.

If you're looking for the latest exam dates, you can find them on the Exams Page.
