Conducting the consultation hours
The same regulations apply to office hours as to participation in courses.
Current Corona rules in the courses
Please observe the hygiene rules adopted by the Rectorate:
1. FFP2 masks must be worn in courses and examinations, except by teachers or lecturers.
2. the FFP2 mask obligation also applies in the university and provincial library and in the freely accessible areas of the university buildings.
You can find the complete rectorate decision here.
Otherwise, the new containment regulation of the state will apply from 03.04.2022. This means that 3G verification at events will also no longer be required at the university. The "check-in" via lion app is also no longer required, even if the QR codes are still on the doors.
Note for new students in the 1st year (Bachelor and Master)
All first-semester students can register for information events for all GEO degree programmes in the "studIP". New information events will be announced and dates published here continuously until the end of the 2nd semester.
Distance exams
On 17.02.2021, the Senate passed a Distance Examination Regulation for the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, which applies to all module examinations with immediate effect. Please read the regulations for online examinations (supervised online examinations as a substitute for presence examinations) and online examinations (unsupervised examination formats, e.g. open book examinations or take home examinations).
The LLZ has compiled an overview of the online examination formats used at MLU.
Substitute benefits for internships
Students who cannot find a suitable internship within the standard period of study due to the far-reaching Corona measures can apply to the examination board responsible for them for approval of a substitute performance. The substitute performance must be equivalent in terms of workload and scope.
The application to the examination board must be comprehensibly justified. It must be evident that this is the last missing module performance. The applicant must prove that he/she has tried in vain to find a placement.
Students who wish to make use of this regulation submit an informal application to the responsible examination board chairperson. The application contains complete data on the name, matriculation number and degree programme as well as:
- a current transcript of records
- letters of application and refusals of the internships (scan)
Please send the application by email to the Office of Student Affairs. The application will be examined by the examination board and if the decision is positive, you will receive a substitute assignment.
