Study Timelines

• Academic Leave of Absence

  Students with children are eligible for maternity or parental leave. During this time, they can take an academic leave of absence. They are exempt from the normal study requirements during this time, but are still allowed to take courses and examinations. Please contact us for more information.

   

• You have an exam and your child is sick. What can you do?

  It is possible to delay exams if you child is sick. We will lead you through the steps to take and provide you with the forms to fill out. Please get in touch with your office.              

   

• Study Timelines

  The HTWG Konstanz allows students with children to set up their own individual course schedule. The student arranges a binding schedule that is approved by the academic dean or the chairperson of the examination committee in their department (see § 3 Par. 5a of the Study and Exam Guidelines).

  Please first set up an appointment with the Familien-Servicestelle or the advisor in your department.
