Maybe not all information is updated. In case ask at the respective chair or Andreas Printz
Projects/studios are offered at different levels. Choose the ones that are fitting to your level. In case you want to up- or downgrade for any reason, talk to the staff. However, BSc-students are normally not admitted to the Master projects (this is different as for the lectures).
Make sure you applied for projects/studios in time according to the information given! This might be important to organize the travel logistic to the site!
Make sure to be at the very first presentation of the project to understand what is it about and what is required. Working teams are usually built instantly after the presentation.
If you can not decide without getting full presentation information, tell the staff that you are interested and until you will have decided to participate or not. You will have to decide at least in the very first lecture week.
Check also the "Short design", "Short Exercises", "Kurzentwürfe" offers at the Landscape Architecture chair sites. Offering 1-2 ECTS for short design sketches (e.g. 24h projects). Apply early - here courses often are full quickly.
# The Lectures
Also for the lectures it is recommended to be present at the very first lecture date. It is then, when an overview of content, methods, grade nature and expectations is given. Hint: visit more lectures than you booked. Include also possible alternatives. You can change your courses selection and drop later courses, you don't like/need, no problem (from our side). You can change your course selection from the original Learning Agreement according to the agreement of your home University. Talk to the Landscape Student Exchange Coordinator.
Electronic course application at our University is not a prerequisite or a key feature for the participation (except for some number limited courses, mostly for e.g. laboratory courses). In most courses, you can just walk in without any control and apply later. However, if you finally decide to take at the course, being listed guarantees the flux of side teaching information, introduction and special dates, etc. Once, you are registered, you don't necessarily have to finish the course.
At the middle of the semester you will have to register for the exam (only for the ones you want to have an exam).
