Course examinations (Lehrveranstaltungsprüfungen, LVP exams)

Course examinations (Lehrveranstaltungsprüfungen, LVP exams) are held three times per semester during WU’s centrally organized large-scale exam weeks (see the academic calendar). You can only take a course examination if you have signed up for it in advance. You can sign up for course examinations even if you haven’t attended the corresponding course.

Students have to sign up for course examinations via the LPIS system during the applicable registration period. All students who sign up during the appropriate registration period are guaranteed a spot in the exam. Without exception, students who have not properly signed up will not be admitted to course examinations. Please note that WU’s no-show policy applies.

Exam Schedules

• The examination schedules contain both a general overview of all examinations taking place in the examination week and separate examination schedules for the BA WISO 19/BA WIRE 16 curricula and the new BA WISO 23/BA WIRE 23 curricula.

• The different plans can be accessed by using the buttons at the top of the PDF or by scrolling.

• If you have started your studies in winter semester 2023 or have changed to the new curriculum, only the BA WISO 23/BA WIRE 23 curriculum is relevant for you. If you started your studies before winter semester 2023/24 and did not switch to the new curriculum, you have to follow the examination schedule BA WISO 19/BA WIRE 16.

No-Show Policy for Course Examinations

If students who have registered for an examination fail to appear without appropriate notice, they will be blocked from the examination in question for a period of 10 weeks starting from the date of the missed exam (no-show rule). A no-show will not be counted as a lost examination attempt.

The submission of the no-show form and confirmation of the reason for absence has to be submitted exclusively ONLINE.

You can find the form to fill out and attach your confirmation here.

"No-show" confirmations can be uploaded until the beginning of the registration period for the following exam week (i.e. until Monday, 2:00 p.m., 2 weeks before the start of the exam week no-show confirmations will be accepted). Confirmations submitted late will not be considered!
