The list of modules (SFB) of a degree programme is the annex to the FSB. The SFB includes:

  • Listing of modules and module components that have to be taken in the individual fields or sub-fields of a degree programme
  • Requirements and methods of assessment

The list of modules is the most important and central document for students and prospective students.

The SFBs of all degree programmes in each available examination regulation are provided on the Pages of the Examination Office as annexes to the FSBs (shortcuts, for example 2015-19, 2010-36) as well as individual files.

All documents (ASPO/LASPO, FSB, SFB, and Module Catalogues) are additionally linked on the pages of Geography:

The study plan (SVP) provides guidance for a time-coordinated course of study. It presents a specific proposal of how to be able to complete the studies within standard length. Information of the SVP does not supersede information of the SFB. More particularly, the SVP does not contain possible options for an alternative course of studies and only sparse information about the structure of the degree programme and individual assessments.

The study plans are linked on the pages of Geography. Additional documents (ASPO/LASPO, FSB, SFB, and Module Catalogues) are also available for download:
