After the written elaboration, an oral defense (presentation/discussion) is planned.

For online open book exams, we offer several exam dates each year. Submissions can be requested at any time. Both forms of examination can be worked out from home with a PC/laptop in compliance with the guidelines.
Bologna process
In order to achieve a harmonization of the European educational landscape, the Bologna process introduced in 1999 was taken into account by switching to the internationally customary three-level system in March 2006 in Austria. Accordingly, six semesters (180 ECTS) are required for doctoral studies at the 1st level (Bachelor) and four semesters (120 ECTS) at the 2nd level (Masters) in order to gain the opportunity for further doctoral studies at the 3rd level.
