There will be one final written exam. First exam date of the winter semester 2018/19 will be on Wednesday, 30th January 2019.

The exam takes place in two lecture halls: FH Hörsaal 1 and Informatikhörsaal. Please make sure to double check in TISS for which room you’re booked in. The exam registration ends on Monday 28.01.2019 at 23:59. De-registration in TISS is possible until Monday 28.01.2019, 23:59.

It is mandatory to bring a personal document/ID with picture.

Good luck!
