The winter semester runs from 1 October to 31 March and the summer semester from 1 April to 30 September.
Students can take up most courses either in the winter or the summer semester.
For most subjects there is no fixed timetable dictating which subjects should be studied in which semester, so students have to decide for themselves on the order in which they complete the various parts of the course. Subject requirements and examination regulations will help you to structure your course appropriately.
