Important deadlines for students: Registration for summer semester 2025!

On April 4, 2025 there is HafenCity University announced that the general re-registration and correction phase for the summer semester 2025 will take place from April 7, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. to April 17, 2025 at midnight.

The re-registration and correction phase applies to all modules and courses in the coming semester. Binding registration for modules, courses and examinations is required.

It is important to note that late registrations or deregistrations are not possible after the end of the registration period. If there are technical difficulties, students should use the support form in ahoi with a screenshot.

Registration options for students

How uni-hamburg.de informed, students who would like to change to another course of study in a higher semester must take into account the registration options depending on the time of transfer. In addition to the general registration phase, the re-registration and correction phase are also available.

Students who transfer from another university to a higher semester course of study at the University of Hamburg can usually only enroll after the general registration phase. You may only register for courses in higher semesters during the re-registration and correction phase. They also have the opportunity to register for events in the first semester during the first-semester registration phase.

Study organization and planning

A successful study organization requires good planning studienwahl.de notes. Students can choose between a single subject or a combination of several subjects. Information about the subjects offered is available on the universities' websites.

The course content and examinations are regulated in the examination regulations and module handbooks. At the beginning of a bachelor's degree, general technical basics and methodological knowledge must be acquired. In the advanced study phase, this knowledge is deepened and can be supplemented individually with elective modules. Practical application takes place in project work, internships or simulation games, which are usually carried out in the fourth or fifth semester.

The academic year is divided into winter and summer semesters, although some subjects can only begin in the winter semester. Study achievements are measured in ECTS points, which represent the student workload. As a rule, 30 ECTS points are awarded per semester, which corresponds to a workload of 750 to 900 hours.

The standard period of study for bachelor's and master's programs is ten to twelve semesters in total. In order to keep an eye on costs, students should try to complete their degree within the standard period of study, as in some federal states long-term study fees may apply if they exceed four to six semesters.
