Transfer to a higher semester
To enroll in the bachelor's degree programs in mechanical engineering, logistics, and industrial engineering, there is no mandatory requirement that you apply for a higher semester.
For example, in order to meet deadlines, you can enroll in the first semester and then have your credits recognized during the course of your studies. There is no deadline for applying for recognition of examination achievements.
Please note the recognition regulations of the TU Dortmund University.
If you would like to start your bachelor studies in the summer semester, you must be placed in at least the 2nd semester.
The following applies:
- For the placement into the 2nd semester you need 15 LP.
- For the placement into the 3rd semester you need 45 LP.
- For the placement into the 4th semester you need 75 LP.
- For the placement into the 5th semester you need 105 LP.
Change of degree program within the Department of Mechanical Engineering
How it works
In the case of identical modules/courses that are anchored in both degree programmes, such as Advanced Mathematics I, these can be recognized directly via the study coordination office.
All other modules are always recognized by the responsible module coordinator. Please use the following form. You can find out who is responsible in the module handbook for the respective degree program .
Send the completed form including attachments by e-mail to Ms. Gurski, Study Coordination.
After approval by the Chair of the Examination Board, the documents are forwarded directly to the Central Examination Office. You will be able to find the recognition on the campus portal approx. 4 weeks later
Submit your application for the higher semester via the campus portal. Information on applying for the higher semester can be found here.
- Please note the deadlines mentioned! All important dates and deadlines can be found here.
- Admission to the B. Sc. in Industrial Engineering and Management is only restricted in the first semester and is open from the second semester onwards. Enrollment in a higher semester is therefore usually possible until the last Friday before the start of lectures.
Please note that other deadlines apply for international students! Please contact theInternational Office!
