The examination boards are responsible for determining the correct academic and examination performance, the crediting of academic and examination performance, the organisation of examinations, the decision on admission to the examination as well as the findings of the degree or the overall examination in the respective course of study.

The Doctoral Committee decides on the admission of applicants to the doctoral procedure. It is obliged to advise the applicants. In the case of interdisciplinary doctoral projects, the Doctoral Committee ensures that the other subjects are appropriately involved in the review process.
