Examination regulations (ER/PO)
In general, they consist of two parts: the so-called General Provisions (GP, German: “Allgemeiner Teil”, AT) and Special Provisions (SP, German “Besonderer Teil”, BT). The GP/AT applies to one or more programs. Among other things, it regulates the grading system and deadlines. The SP/BT applies to one specific program; it lists the modules which have to be passed, and regulates, e.g., the calculation of the final overall grade
