How to select your courses in Hohenheim
The easiest way to select your courses in Hohenheim is to use the module catalogue. It
contains all the modules you can choose and includes a short description of every module
with information about the relevant tutorials, lectures and seminars.
You can find the module catalogue on our homepage:
https://www.uni-hohenheim.de/module-catalogue.
Step 1: Select your faculty:
On the first page of the module catalogue you should choose the faculty to which your study
programme belongs (figure 1).
Figure 1.
Step 2: Select your modules:
Step 2.1: Select courses of the current semester:
In Hohenheim the academic year consists of two semesters:
 winter semester (October to March)
 summer semester (April to September)
Many modules are only offered in the winter semester or the summer semester. So make
sure that you do not select modules which are not offered in the semester of your stay. In the
module catalogue lectures of the winter semester are labelled with odd figures “1, 3 or 5”,
lectures of the summer semester with even numbers “2 and 4” (figure 2).

or our Master programmes.

Step 2.4: Select only complete modules
For more information about a module, click on the
next to the code of the module.
Modules can consist of two or more parts. (For example a lecture and a tutorial or two
lectures). If a module consists of several parts, you should attain all parts of this module.
Otherwise you might not be able to do the exam. Complete modules have a code ending with
“0”, sub-parts have a code ending with “1” to “9” (figure 5). Make sure that you only select
complete modules.

schedule. The updated course catalogues are published shortly before the start of the
semester: In mid-September for the winter semester and in mid-March for the summer
semester. You can check the dates and lecture halls of the modules by clicking on “Room
