  • Course registration in Moodle for the summer semester 2026

    Concerns/Category: 

    Dear students,
    You can enrol in your Moodle courses from Sunday, 1 March 2026, 7:00 a.m. Please only enrol in courses that you can actually take in the coming semester so that you don't take up places that could be used by other students.


    First-year students can still enrol in Moodle courses for the basic lectures after the semester has begun. Further information will be provided at the first semester welcome event on 16 March 2026.


    If you are unable to register for a course that you are required to take, please contact the relevant lecturers directly.
    Professors have the right to remove you from their Moodle courses, if you do not show up in the lectures.

  • Impairment of exam participation due to strikes on Monday, February 2, 2026

    Study office

    Concerns/Category: 

    • All courses





    Dear Students,

    warning strikes in local public transport have been announced for Monday, February 2, 2026, but no further details have been provided. If you are affected by this, the following key points apply:

    1. All examinations will take place as scheduled according to the examination schedule.

    2. Students who do not attend the exam due to the strike (force majeure) will not be disadvantaged (no exam attempt, no effect of deadlines). However, affected students must submit an application with proof to the Examination Office.

    3. For students who arrive late due to the strike (force majeure), it is up to the examiners to decide on a case-by-case basis. It may be possible for them to take the exam during the remaining exam time. Under certain circumstances, the exam time can also be adjusted for the students affected, provided that this does not cause any further implications (room occupancy, disruption of the exam, etc.). Or, in the case of exams with two consecutive time slots, participation in the later group may be considered, for example. 

    4. There is no entitlement to an alternative date. 

    Your students´office

  • IB Sales Management and e-Commerce: Retake exam 12 February 2026, 15.00 hours / 3.00 p.m. CET

    Concerns/Category: 

    Dear Students,

    As previously announced, a retake examination will be offered for those students who did not successfully pass the exam in the previous summer semester in the course IB – Sales Management and e-Commerce.

    The examination will take place on 12 February 2026 at 15.00 hours / 3:00 p.m. CET.

    The exam will be held in presence at the OTH in Weiden. As multiple rooms will be used, you will find information about your specific room assignment in the Moodle course the day before the exam.

    The exam will be

    - an online multiple-choice exam

    - conducted on the computers provided by OTH.

    - It will consist of 30 questions and

    - the duration of the exam is 90 minutes.

    - The questions will follow the same format as the sample questions available on Moodle.

    Make sure:

    - You must be able to log in on the OTH computers using a German keyboard layout and access the Moodle course. If you have not yet done so, please make sure in advance that you are able to log in successfully to Moodle, as technical login issues on the exam day cannot be resolved individually.

    - For identification, you are required to bring your student ID card.

    - You may bring one A4 sheet of paper, handwritten or printed on both sides, containing notes that may help you during the exam.

    - No other aids are permitted. Technical devices such as smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, or similar devices must be switched to silent mode and kept in your bags under the table for the entire duration of the exam. Any use of such devices will lead to disqualification from the exam.

    Best regards,

    Anna Grimm and Christoph Hachmöller
