Campusonline is the university's central campus management system. Here you will find important information about your studies, such as study plans, module handbooks, the course catalog, courses and room allocations. You can use Campusonline to register for examinations and view your examination results as well as download study certificates or the transcript of records.

You will receive the credit points for a module after passing the (partial) examinations of the module. The module description specifies possible forms of examination, e.g. a written examination, an oral examination, a term paper or a project with written report and oral presentation of the results. In the department of Computer Science, the specific structure of the examinations in a semester can be found in the examination planning system. Times, rooms and permitted aids are specified there. For written examinations, you must register in the Campusonline system at least five days before the examination. For oral examinations, you must also register there and then arrange the examination date with your examiner.

The aim of the thesis is to show that you can work independently in an academic environment. The Bachelor's thesis can be completed either in 9 weeks full-time or in 6 months during the course of study. The Master's thesis is always 6 months full-time. Theses may only be issued by the university. Theses in co-operation with companies are possible in principle, but often require a lot of coordination and should therefore be planned well in advance. Bachelor's theses have one examiner; Master's theses have two. One examiner must be from the Computer Science department at Ulm University! The second examiner of the Master's thesis can also come from other universities or research institutions in consultation with the examination board. The thesis must be registered no later than 3 weeks after completion of all other examinations. 

Seek dialogue with the staff of the institute you are interested in in good time (approx. 3 months before you wish to register). Discussions with lecturers about possible topics often arise in seminars or projects, but also in lectures from the specialisation area. In addition, most institutes offer a website with an overview of topics (see links in the right-hand column) or an information event per semester to which all interested parties are invited.

The thesis is registered by the signatures of the examiners and the students on an application for admission. Your supervisor will guide you through this process.

Examinations are planned over the course of a semester. For examinations in the department of computer science, the necessary information such as the type of examination, time, permitted aids or the rooms will be communicated in good time via the examination planning system (in German: Prüfungsplanungssystem, short PPS). Please make sure that the current semester is set (selection top right) and note that examination registration must be done via Campusonline.

In order to simplify study planning, students have developed a web application as part of a software engineering project. The usage is explained the first time you call the study planner. The data is collected from Campusonline (without an official interface). If information is therefore not up to date or cannot be found, you are welcome to use the feedback option provided.

Information sent via these mailing lists is usually really important and should be heeded in any case. Make sure that you can read emails sent to your university address.
