Registration within this period is obligatory for all courses. Participating in courses without registration is not possible. If there is more than one course/group available for a certain course type that has a limited number of spots (e.g. seminars, practical courses, language courses, but not lectures), register for 2 options (if there are 2) or 3 or more options (if there are more than 2), in order of preference, otherwise the software will reject your application. Please avoid timetable overlaps because the software cannot correct overlaps by itself.
Please make sure to send an email to course.allocation@uni-muenster.de if you wish to unenroll so we can re-allocate your spot to somebody else in a later corridor.

Theses
Your thesis has to be registered with the examination office (Prüfungsamt I). The student and their adviser fill out the required registration form together, which is then submitted to the examination office.
It is the student’s responsibility to find an instructor to act as their advisor and assessor. Please make sure that you already have an idea of a topic you wish to work on and a thesis statement to go with it when reaching out to your instructor and check their homepages for additional information regarding theses. Please do not approach potential advisors randomly, but make sure that their teaching and research interests align with yours.
Please note that not all members of the English Department enjoy the privilege to act as advisors for theses. You can find a list detailing who is allowed to advise and assess theses on the examination office’s website.
Cases of hardship (Härtefälle)
Students may claim special consideration in course allocation and in exam regulations if they meet the requirements to be considered a case of hardship (e.g. students with care responsibilities for others or students suffering from chronic illness).
Please be aware that there is a different set of rules and administrative responsibilities depending on whether you require special consideration for course allocation or for exam regulations.
a) Course registration:
For cases of hardship (students with children, students with a chronic illness, students taking care of close relatives): Please submit proof of your situation (e.g. doctor's note, your child's birth certificate, documents provided by health insurance,...) to anna.rapp@uni-muenster.de and send a list of the required courses before official course registration starts. Your list needs to include the following information: course number, instructor's name, full course title, module.
Please be aware that the documents you submit will not be saved and that you need to re-submit them every semester that you wish to make use of this procedure. Further, take note that the process of course registration in cases of hardships runs separately from any compensating measures regarding examinations that you might be eligible for.
b) Compensating measures for taking exams:
If you wish to apply for compensating measures for taking exams, this has to be done directly with the examination office (Prüfungsamt I). You need to submit a written application stating what kind of situation or impediment requires you to receive compensating measures for taking specific exams, proof thereof and a suggestion of appropriate compensation measures. This needs to be done before you register for an exam. Please note that the range of appropriate compensation measures is fairly limited and that there are no compensating measures for mandatory attendance. Please contact the examination office directly if you are unsure how to phrase your application.
Exchange students
Exchange Students who wish to register for classes with the English Department, should carefully read the information for exchange students HERE and then sign up to our Learnweb folder “ED incomings” (password: “English”) once officially enrolled at the University of Münster. On Learnweb, you must then upload your language certificate and book an online appointment for class registration. A list of available courses will also be available there.
