If you have already completed an extension curriculum in full as part of a Bachelor's degree programme at the University of Vienna and would like to have this EC recognised for a further Bachelor's degree programme, please refer to the extension curriculum to see whether it may be used for the desired degree programme. The Directorate of Studies of the main study is responsible for the recognition of the entire EC. No registration via u:space is required for the recognition of a completed EC. Please use the form "Anerkennung innerhalb der Universität Wien" an note in the commentary field, that it has to be a recogition for the completed EC.

Recognition of activities, provided that they are comparable to the internships required in the curriculum, is permissible (e.g. internships in nursing science, provided that work was done in the nursing field).
Support activities can be recognised for the alternative extension or elective courses. These recognitions cannot replace compulsory courses! No subject-related internships and/or modules for individual specialisation may be replaced by the recognition of activities related to COVID-19. If you are unsure which module of your curriculum may be used for recognition, please contact your director of studies or the SSC.

The starting date and time frame of the activity are relevant for recognition.

Activities accepted as related to COVID-19 include community service, military service, hospital service, nursing service and transport service of persons in need of care, service in water or electricity supply, care of minors in public institutions, harvest assistance, sale of food, etc.

If you have taken examinations/gained experience abroad while you have been enrolled at the University of Vienna, you find the relevant information on the web page of the International Support.

If a compulsory or elective course of your curriculum is not offered at the University of Vienna, you have the possibility to complete this course at another university institution. However, BEFORE completing this course, you must submit an application for pre-approval to your study program director. Pre-approval is not required for pure electives (Alternate Extension), as the offer to complete the module is broadly available here in any case.
