Coronavirus - Update: Online Examinations Directive

An overview of the most important changes. As already announced, the summer semester 2021 will be held entirely in Distance Learning. There will only be a few exceptions for face-to-face teaching in individual courses, which will be individually evaluated and approved by the Vice Rectorate Academic Affairs. Of course, this measure for the protection of all brings with it numerous challenges. In order to prevent any confusion that may arise, a new directive for online examinations has been developed in cooperation with the Admission Office and the Distance Learning Team, and the orientation guide for students has been updated. This directive does not create any new regulations but reflects the current legal situation and serves as an instruction on how to implement the legal requirements and the existing study law provisions of the statutes of the TU Wien in the study and examination system in a legally compliant manner for the examinations to be carried out online due to the COVID 19 pandemic. In order to provide you with an easier overview of the most important changes, we would like to highlight the most serious changes to the previous procedure below.
