Students need letters of recommendation for a variety of reasons, most commonly for scholarships or stays abroad. We are happy to support you with applications for scholarships.

However, in order to write a letter of recommendation for you, at least one member of the chair's staff must be convinced that we can recommend you professionally. So before you approach a member of the chair's staff with a request for a letter of recommendation, please check the following points:

1. You have had at least one intensive discussion or several discussions with a member of staff about subject-related questions as part of a module at the chair (e.g. as part of a course, asking questions in tutorials or through consultations for projects).
2. You have successfully passed at least one exam in a module at the chair.

Together with your request for a letter of recommendation, please send us the following information:

1. Institution to which the letter of recommendation should be addressed
2. A specific description of the purpose of the letter of recommendation, for example, a description of what (e.g. studies, subject, projects) is intended to be done abroad (which country) and what positive effects are expected
3. Curriculum vitae
4. current transcript of records from the B-TU
5. a short description of how members of the chair might know you and why this chair is suitable to write you a letter of recommendation (see above for the points from the previous check).
