First Steps and Basics

Planner of Studies

When you open the Planner of Studies (Studienplaner) there are two views available: the Module Plan View (Modulplan anzeigen) and the Examination Regulations View (Prüfungsordnung anzeigen). You must make sure that you are in the Examination Regulations View.
If you see Show Module Plan (Modulplan anzeigen) in the top left corner of the screen, then you are in the correct view. If you see Show Examinations Regulations (Prüfungsordnung anzeigen), you need to click that text to change the view. It may seem confusing but the label on top indicates the view into which you can change, not the one you are currently in.

Basic Concept

In alma courses and exams (exams refer to Prüfungen as well as Studienleistungen) are two distinct sections in alma. They are linked in the sense that courses are assigned to exams. These assignments may change from term to term. Students need to apply separately for both, i. e. enrol in courses and register for the exams linked to them.
