3 General Information

Availability of Modules and Courses

The listed modules and courses are generally offered each winter or summer term, respectively. However, individual items may be subject to less frequent recurrence or change. Also, the number of participants may be restricted. It is essential that all incoming exchange students confirm their choice of courses with the respective departmental coordinator at RWTH Aachen University for an authoritative study plan. RWTH Aachen will make every effort to accommodate incoming exchange students‘ course choices, participation in the courses listed in this overview can however not be guaranteed.

Credit Points (ECTS)

The credit points awarded at RWTH Aachen University express the volume of learning based on the defined learning outcomes and their associated workload. Workload is an estimation of the time the student typically needs to complete all learning activities such as lectures, seminars, projects, practical work, work placements and individual study required to achieve the defined learning outcomes in formal learning environments. At RWTH Aachen University one credit point corresponds to 30 hours of work. Please note that this represents the typical workload and that for individual students the actual time to achieve the learning outcomes may vary.
