The timetable for each degree course shows exactly when the theoretical and practical phases of the course take place. You will receive a timetable for each semester in good time before the start of lectures via the LSF.

To access the timetable, click on LSF: Courses -> Degree course plans -> select the degree course -> enter a value for from and to semester (e.g. 1 to 1 for the first semester) -> you will now receive a weekly view and can view the plan for each week.

Courses start at 8 a.m. at the earliest and end at 7:15 p.m. at the latest. However, there may be days in the timetable when there are no courses. These are intended for self-study.

General information on applying for a semester of leave of absence can be found in the RWU Ravensburg-Weingarten University statutes on enrollment, re-registration, leave of absence and de-registration. The current version can be found on this page in the Admissions Office section.

If possible, please submit the complete application for leave of absence online before the semester in question and before the start of the lecture period via myCampus-the university portal of RWU. The required evidence to support the application must be uploaded with the application.

Please note: A leave of absence in the first semester is generally not permitted (with the exception of the above-mentioned family reasons). In addition, a leave of absence should not exceed two semesters. Please bear in mind that you are not allowed to attend courses or complete coursework and examinations during a semester of leave (with the exception of the above-mentioned family reasons).

If Bachelor's students are at the end of the 10th semester or Master's students are at the end of the 6th or 8th semester, then an application for an extension of the study period can be submitted.

There is no form for this, you have to write a letter with reasons yourself. You then submit the letter directly to the Examination Office directly. The decision on your application will be made by the Central Examination Board (ZPA).

Yes, cooperative doctorates are possible in various constellations at RWU and are expressly supported. The doctorate is carried out in cooperation with a university or university of education that awards the doctorate. In many cases, RWU is the employer and the workplace is at the university.

Further information can be found at Doctorate.

The submission is necessary if you are absent from parts of a portfolio examination due to illness. In these cases, the certificate of incapacity for examination completed by the doctor must be submitted within 14 days of the relevant examination date.

In all other cases, a certificate is voluntary.

If this examination is a compulsory examination, it must be repeated:

• From summer semester 2023, you must also register for repeat examinations (first retake) yourself. However, you can register and deregister during the examination registration and deregistration period. Special regulations apply to portfolio examinations.
• There is no longer a mandatory deadline for taking repeat examinations. However, you must ensure that you have completed all parts of the intermediate examination, with the exception of a maximum of 10, by the end of the fourth semester, otherwise you will lose your right to take the examination (see § 7 of the Bachelor SPO).

The second repetition requires that you submit proof of advising from the student advisory service of the respective degree program to the Examinations Office by the time you register for the examination.

The Examination Office will then register the second resit of the examination.

If your question could not be answered here, you can find further information in the Rectorate's Moodle course on Introduction to the examination system at RWU.

Log in to Moodle with your university account details and register for the course on your own to gain access to the further information provided there.

You can register your thesis (Bachelor's or Master's thesis) online via the QM-ENGINE portal.

When you register, you will also receive a link to the form: Notification of completion of thesis. 
The form must be enclosed with the submission of the thesis and should contain the final title of the thesis. It will then be included in the degree certificate. You can also find the form in the download area of our website.

The Public Relations provides various RWU logo designs for download.

Powerpoint templates can be downloaded after registration in the QM-Portal
(Documents -> Student Service -> Templates)

You hand in one printed copy per examiner to the Examinations Office. In addition, a data carrier with the digital version of the thesis must be handed in for the first examiner. If the second examiner is external, you submit the copy to the external examiner yourself and only hand in the copy for the university examiner at the Examinations Office.

The thesis can either be handed in personally at the Examinations Office during the opening hours of Student Services or posted in one of our mailboxes in the main building. If you are not on site, you can also send us your thesis by post. Please scan the proof of posting and send it to the person responsible in the Examinations Office. The submission date at the post office is the "submission date".

Exception: Faculty T - the work can be submitted via Moodle.

In addition to the copies and the data carrier, please also enclose the completed forms "Fertigstellung der Abschlussarbeit" (please only fill in the upper part) and the "Exmatrikulationsantrag" of the thesis.
