Supplemental Examination
Supplemental examination in applied geometry must be passed by the time you register for the compulsory module Geometric Modelling, Visualisation and CAD in the 2nd semester if this subject was not been successfully completed after the 8th grade at a secondary school ("Oberstufe") to the extend of at least 4 hours per week. Please note that this supplemental examination must not be the last examination of the degree programme.
The curriculum is the basis of a degree programme. A look at the curriculum for the Bachelor Civil Engineering gives you a detailed overview of the structure, content, examination regulations and qualification profile of this Bachelor's degree.
The curriculum can clarify several important questions before you start your studies. For example, which criteria must be fulfilled for enrolment in the Bachelor Civil Engineering, how long the programme lasts, which modules must be completed and much more.
The 2025W curriculum is currently valid for the Bachelor's programme Civil Engineering.
