You will find information on all Courses in Sociology on the campus wide Course catalogue of the University Tuebingen. In this catalogue you can also find the enrollment period for every course (which may vary by course but typically starts 4-6 weeks before the start of the term). See Basic Data ⮞ Period.

Unfortunately in spring term 25, at the Bachelor level (1st cycle) there is a limited number of course offers:
Method pratical course: Analyzing social cohesion (6 ECTS) [Volker Lang]
Policing and Human Rights (6 ECTS) [Deep Chand] (planned, not finally confirmed)

Foreign students should plan their stay in Tübingen well in advance and need to consider:
Nomination by the home university and application at the university of Tübingen. Students need to be nominated first before they can apply in Tübingen.
Language skills (German and English in particular)
Visa for entry and study permit
Flat hunting in Tübingen
Health insurance
Selection of courses and Learning Agreement (for Erasmus exchange students) Students should use the Learning Agreement form of their home university. Ideally, the " Before the Mobility" section should be completed after the official course catalogue of the university of Tübingen for the relevant semester is online. If the home university asks the section to be completed earlier, then changes can be made after the registration for the courses. However, during the planning stage students should clarify with their home coordinator which type of courses can be recognized for their course of studies at the home institute.
On the website of the International Office students will find further information and links on all the above-mentioned topics. Please read this carefully!
At the end of your stay in Tübingen and prior to your departure you should take care of:
Receipt of your Transcript of Records The transcript should contain the grades for all the courses you completed during the exchange. It is based on the "Scheine" that you received from respective lecturer(s). Students can either submit these "Scheine" personally to the person who is responsible for issuing your transcript or the lecturer sends the the "Schein" there directly.
Please complete the application for termination of enrollment and submit it personally at the Student Administration Office.
Deregister with the municipal office (Bürgeramt).
Students will find all information explained in great detail and links on the website for exchange students "Departure from Tübingen".
