Students who volunteered for civilian service can take leave of absence for the current semester. Exams may not be taken during the leave of absence. Activities that are carried out in the interest of public safety and health care in connection to COVID-19 can be credited with 4 ECTS-Credits. For this purpose, please contact the Dean of Studies.
For questions relating to leave of absence, please mail to studienabteilung@uibk.ac.at

Due to the limited possibilities, the Rectorate decided to grant an additional semester to students who had not been able to obtain an ordinary degree by 30 April 2020.

The Federal Ministry extended the grace period for the summer semester 2020 to 30 June 2020.

Because of the currently limited options for completing the study programme by the stipulated end date (30 June 2020), the Rectorate of the University of Innsbruck has decided to grant an additional semester for its completion. The deadline now extends to 30 November 2020.

Students, who due to the currently limited possibilities, cannot complete their studies by 30 June 2020 as may be intended, have the option to have their tuition fee refunded if they successfully finish their studies by 30 November 2020 at the latest.

The studies induction and orientation stage for students who have begun their studies in the summer semester 2020 will take place in the summer semester 2020 and the winter semester 2020/21.

Students who have not completed their studies induction and orientation stage by the time the C-UHV comes into force, can pass continuing courses exceeding the number of ECTS-Credits stipulated by the curricula if they would otherwise experience a delay in their study progress. The decision is made by the responsible Dean of Studies for the Director of Studies.

• Excursion as an elective module:
  Students do not have to make an excursion, but can choose from an alternative course offered (upon consultation with the deans of studies) or the teachers can interpret the definition of excursion more broadly.
  
• Excursion as a compulsory subject:
  a) The course is planned as an EX in the curriculum - the offer must be carried out as an excursion at a later date. Please note the following point ("day excursions")
  b) The course is planned as EX/AG in the curriculum - the course can be carried out as an AG.
  
• Excursions can also be arranged as day excursions at a later date (summer/autumn). If this is not possible, a solution should be worked out with the Dean of Studies. Please ensure that the overall workload is not reduced. 
  

Preparation

• Candidates who do not wish to pass the examination online, will get an exam date shortly.
  
• The candidates will be informed by the examiner per e-mail that the oral examination may be held online if requested.
  
• Candidates who agree to an online examination, will submit a scan of an ID to the examiner.
  
• An examination date will be agreed on with the candidates as well as the used medium (Skype, BigBlueButton).
  
• The functionality of the used medium is (ideally) tested one day ahead of the examination.
  

Realisation

The examination agreed on in time and form is carried out in compliance with the following guidelines:

• Establishment of connection
  
• Checking of the room of the candidate (e.g. pan shots).
• Candidates sit (if possible) at a table that is empty – with the exception of elements approved for the examination (e.g. books, calculators).
• The candidate’s camera setting allows the examiner permanent eye contact and a view of the named table.
• Before the examination begins, the candidate will be informed about which documents may be used. The candidate has to declare on oath that he/she will only use the permitted an no other aids.
• A short report must be written on the examination.
• At the end of the examination, the candidate must be informed of the grade and the grade must be briefly substantiated.

Advancement of studies: summer semester 2020 as “neutral semester” (Federal Ministry, status: 31 March 2020)

In the summer semester 2020, the course of studies is affected by the “COVID 19 crisis”, students may not be able, without their fault, to earn all required study achievements. In order to protect recipients of study grants from negative consequences, this “semester does not count” for the duration of the funding period for study grants – this does not only apply to study grants, but also mobility grants and graduation scholarships.

Recipients of study grants should not be at disadvantage. We will therefore rate the current semester as “neutral semester”. This means:

• Payment: Of course, the grants will be paid in the summer semester 2020. Requirements for proof for examinations passed for the last winter semester will be reduced, since there were only limited options for examinations during the post-admission period.
• Duration of entitlement: The entitlement period is extended by one semester for all students who were within the entitlement period in the winter semester 2019/2020 or the summer semester 2020. They will get the grant for a further semester if needed.
• Academic success: Exceptionally, academic success must not be proven for the summer semester 2020. Requirements for proof of academic success that is to be presented in the winter semester 2020/21 or the summer semester 2021 are reduced accordingly.
• Period of entitlement: Any other deadlines, e.g. for the admission to a subsequent Master’s programme, for compliance with the age limit or completing the final degree with a degree scholarship are also extended by six months in the winter semester 2020/2021.
• Application deadlines: Application deadlines are not affected thereof.
• Implementation: Details will be regulated by an accordant law and decree. Once they are enacted, the new regulations will be published on the website of the study grant authority.

Another important note on the study grant authority:
In the six study grant offices, they work non-stop to process your applications, but in shifts and with less staff. Of course there will be delays due to the safety-related reduction of the staff. To intensify the processing to the maximum, currently no phone-calls are taken by the authority. If students still want to leave a message for the authority, they should without fail use the contact forms provided to send the message by mail. They will get an electronic response as soon as possible.

Students are also covered in the context of university activities that are currently taking place at home. If these activities take place at all, there is of course still insurance cover in connection to school events, school-related events, vocational (educational) orientation and the usual practical activities prescribed by the curricula. Also during the (partial) closure of schools and universities, accidents and suspected occupational diseases (also infections in relation to SARS-CoV-2) related to the school and university education are to be reported.

In the future, examinations can take place in presence and virtually. In this context, please note the guidelines of the Rectorate and the Senate for virtual oral and virtual written examinations.
