At the beginning of each winter semester, the examination board chairpersons offer information events on the degree programme and examination regulations. Separate events are held for the English-language degree programmes and for first-year students and students in higher semesters on the German degree programmes. You can find a copy of the presentations in the download area on the right.
Applications for the postponement of compulsorily registered examinations, guidelines for the cancellation of examinations and various announcements can be found in the download area on the right.
In the download area you will find the conversion key from the number of points achieved in an exam to the corresponding grade (based on a total score of 100).
We also offer Excel files as a service, which you can use to calculate your current average grade or a provisional overall grade. As the calculations naturally depend on the respective examination regulations, you should take care to select the correct file.
For the recognition of examinations and periods of study, please refer to the Recognition Regulations of the Hochschule Niederrhein and the information sheet of the faculty. If you have any questions, please contact the chair of the examination board.
