News

Dear students,

In order to prevent you and us from getting unnecessarily infected with the new corona virus, the Academic Service Office's staff is until further notice not available in person, instead only via email and telephone (see here for contact details or via studienbuero.geowiss"AT"mailman.rrz.uni-hamburg.de).

Some further information (updated July 16):

• Submission of B.Sc./M.Sc. theses: Theses should be submitted electronically to the relevant contact person in the ASO together with a scan/photograph of the signed affidavit page. If the file is too large, you can use the university's attachment tool. Printed versions will have to be sent via regular mail to the ASO or handed in at a later date. However, the date of the electronic submission is the decisive one until further notice. Please note that we are currently not fully able to accept parcels or registered mail (Einschreiben). The department's examination boards have decide to extend deadlines for theses that were already registered during the university's closure in accordance with the presidential FAQs.
  
  
• Registration of B.Sc./M.Sc. theses (updated April 23): Theses can be registered again starting May 4. Please discuss with your supervisor before registering whether your proposed thesis can be completed in the current circumstances. In addition to the information given here please note the following: Print, sign and scan the registration form or add an electronic signature. Have your supervisor sign the form electronically as well and send the form via email (cc your supervisor) to the ASO.
  
  
• Diplomas (updated April 7): Diplomas can be ordered by sending us the signed and scanned form via email. Please note, that the process might take longer time than usual. In urgent cases, we can issue a digital proof of completion of studies or a transcript of records.
  
  
• All other documents should be handed in electronically as well.
  
  
• Exams (updated July 16): If you are participating in a written exam, please see the information given here (unfortunately in German only). Exam dates for summer semester courses are still preliminary, even if already entered in Stine.
  
  
• Doctoral theses (updated June 22):
  • Application for admission: All documents should be handed in electronically.
  • Submission of theses: Theses have to be handed in electronically. Printed version can be sent via regular mail or handed in at a later date. The date of electronic submission counts as the general date of submission.
  • Defences can be held in person or in a partially digitalised format. in the latter case, one of the members of the review committee needs to be physically present with the PhD student.

Please note that regulations can change quickly due to the dynamically evolving situation. See also the university's FAQ on the topic.

Thank you for your patience and stay healthy!
