A database of modules that have already been successfully recognized in the past is available to assist you with the recognition process. If the module you are planning to take abroad is included in this database, there is no need for a technical review by the module coordinators—in this case, the examination board can proceed directly with the recognition. The link below will take you to the database, where you can filter by country and host university. This makes planning easier and significantly speeds up the recognition process.
Recognition process for academic achievements completed while studying abroad
-
2. Fill out the application for recognition
Enter all courses you would like to take abroad in the application form.
In the second column, indicate which LUH course you would like to replace or have recognized.
Please refer to the module descriptions of LUH and the partner university.
-
3. Formal review by the examination committee
Have the completed application reviewed by the examination board.
It will confirm whether formal recognition is possible in principle.
-
4. Technical review by module coordinators
For compulsory and elective modules with a direct equivalent, please contact the module coordinator directly. For non-specific elective modules without a direct equivalent, the specialization coordinator will review the module:
Prof. Richter – Energy and Process Engineering
Prof. Lachmayer – Development and Design
Prof. Maier – Production Engineering
Prof. Schmidt – Master's program in Production and Logistics
Prof. Seel – Master's program in Mechatronics and Robotics
If the module is already entered in the database, no additional review by the module coordinator is required. In this case, the module can be recognized directly by the examination board. The same applies to modules that are to be recognized for the Studium Generale.
-
5. Create a learning agreement
You will draw up your learning agreement based on the approved application. This must be signed by both the exchange coordinator at your faculty and the exchange coordinator at the host university.
-
6. Keep documents and report changes
Any changes made during the stay abroad must be noted in the Learning Agreement and re-signed.
-
7. After returning
You submit the application for recognition together with your transcript of records to the Examination Board for Recognition.
