Course registration

Please register online using the registration form in the course catalog. Registration deadlines:

  • 31 January for spring semesters
  • 25 August for fall semesters

Please indicate if you intend taking a course as 'audit' only i.e. for no credits, failing to do this will result in the course being registered as fail.

For CDSE or CDSS courses please register online via the respective center's course catalogue. If you would like to take a course which is not in the GESS course catalogue please contact your Center Manager.

Please note that the GESS administration automatically registers students for the core courses of the program.

Deregistration is possible within the first four weeks of the course starting, thereafter students will be automatically registered for the exam in the respective course. You may only deregister from block courses up to one week before the course starts. To deregister please send an e-mail to 'gess.registrationmail-uni-mannheim.de' and make sure to inform the respective lecturer as well.

Course evaluation

We constantly strive to improve the program and as a consequence ask all students to evaluate all courses attended. This provides us with invaluable feedback. Evaluations are anonymous. Username and password will be sent to students by e-mail after the courses are finished.
