Corrections to partial services or modules that are necessary after publication of the manuals will be announced on our
Errata page
PDF and online version
The module handbook is available in two versions: As a
PDF document
including all important information about the degree program as well as an
online version
with dynamic display options. The online version is integrated into the
Campus Management Portal for students
and, unlike the PDF version, allows
older module and partial performance versions
to be displayed. All curricular components such as subjects, modules and partial achievements can also be saved as
bookmarks
Structure
The course is divided into subjects (e.g. Business Administration, Computer Science or Operations Research). Each subject is in turn divided into modules. Each module consists of one or more interrelated partial achievements, which are completed by one or more performance assessments. The scope of each module is characterized by credit points, which are credited after successful completion of the module. Some modules are compulsory. For a large number of modules, there are a large number of individual choices and specialization options. This enables students to tailor their interdisciplinary studies to their personal needs, interests and career prospects in terms of both content and time.
The module handbook describes the modules belonging to the degree program. It deals with
the composition of the modules,
the size of the modules (in CP),
the interdependencies between the modules
the qualification objectives of the modules,
the type of performance assessment and
how the grade of a module is calculated.
It thus provides the necessary orientation and is a helpful companion during your studies.
However, the module handbook does not replace the course catalog, which provides up-to-date information on the variable course dates (e.g. time and location of the course) for each semester.
Beginning and completion of a module
Each module and each examination may only be chosen once. The decision on the assignment of an examination to a module (e.g. if an examination can be selected in several modules) is made by the student at the time he or she registers for the corresponding examination. A module is completed or passed when the module examination has been passed (grade of at least 4.0). For modules in which the module examination consists of several partial examinations, the following applies: The module is completed when all required partial module examinations have been passed. For modules that offer a choice of alternative partial examinations, the module examination is completed with the examination with which the required total credit points are achieved or exceeded. However, the module grade is included in the overall grade calculation with the weighting of the predefined credit points for the module. Failed partial examinations must be repeated (see also below).
Module versions
It is not uncommon for modules to have to be revised, e.g. because partial achievements are no longer required or new partial achievements are added. As a rule, a new module version is then created that applies to all students taking the module for the first time. Students who have already started the module, on the other hand, enjoy protection of confidence and remain in the old module version. They can therefore complete the module under the same conditions that applied at the beginning of the module (exceptions are regulated by the Examination Board). The relevant date is the date of the student's "binding declaration" regarding the choice of module as defined in Section 5(2) of the study and examination regulations. This binding declaration is made when the student registers for the first examination in this module.
The modules are presented in their current version in the module handbook. The version number is indicated in the module description. Older module versions can be accessed via the previous module handbooks in the
archive
Overall or partial examinations
Module examinations can be taken as a comprehensive examination or as partial examinations. If the module examination is offered as a comprehensive examination, the entire scope of the module examination is examined on one date. If the module examination is divided into partial examinations, the module examination can be taken over several semesters, e.g. in individual examinations for the associated courses. Registration for the respective examinations takes place online via the
Campus Management Portal
The following functions are available at
after registration:

Types of examinations
In
the study and examination regulations (SPO) from 2015 onwards
, a distinction is made between written examinations, oral examinations and other types of examinations. Examinations are always graded. This is to be distinguished from coursework that can be repeated several times and is not graded. The passed performance is marked as "passed" or "with success".
Repeating examinations
Students who fail a written examination, oral examination or other type of examination may only repeat it once. The repeatability of other types of performance assessments is regulated in the module handbook. If the repeat examination (including any oral re-examination) is also failed, the right to take the examination is lost. As a rule, a possible application for a second resit must be submitted in writing to the Examination Board within two months of losing the right to take the examination. A prior consultation is mandatory.

Examiners
The Examination Board has appointed the KIT examiners and lecturers listed in the module handbook under the modules and their courses as examiners for the courses they offer.
Additional work
An additional performance is a voluntary, additional examination, the result of which is not taken into account for the degree in the degree program and therefore not for the overall grade. It must be declared as such in the student portal when registering for the examination and cannot be subsequently booked as a compulsory achievement. As of SPO 2015, additional credits amounting to a maximum of 30 CP can be acquired from the overall KIT program and included in the certificate at the student's request. According to SPO 2007, up to two additional modules of 9 CP each can be included in the certificate at the student's request. Further information can be found
here
