Teaching and Examination Regulations (TER) Bachelor's and Master's

View the TERs in the Study Guide
Last updated on 20 January 2025
Do you want to know what requirements you need to meet in order to obtain your diploma? Or are you curious how the education and examinations of your study programme are arranged?

Every year, Teaching and Examination Regulations (TER) are established for all Bachelor's and Master's programmes, consisting of both faculty and programme-specific regulations. In the TER, you will find the assessment criteria and requirements that you must meet in order to obtain your diploma. You can also read how your study programme is structured to achieve the educational objectives and how the education and examinations are organised. The TER of your study programme can be found in the Study Guide.
