IT-Services & web portals

The e-learning-portals offer the possibility to manage the events of a semester and to download current documents from professors, to take exams and / or to watch videos. At the beginning of each semester, the lectures clarify how the scripts and documents and other materials are made available. For many optional subjects and projects, it is mandatory to register in order to participate.
