FÜS module catalog for the summer semester 2025

In the summer semester 2025, the modules listed in the module catalog are permitted for interdisciplinary studies in degree programs at the BTU. Other modules may not be taken in the interdisciplinary studies.

Please note the negative lists of the study programs in the module catalog, which have been determined by the program directors. Not all modules are permitted in every degree program.

FÜS module catalog for the summer semester 2025

The Interdisciplinary Studies (FÜS) serves to impart interdisciplinary knowledge that goes beyond the subject curricula. In doing so, the FÜS does not take the place of the integrated teaching of competencies that is necessary from the perspective of the individual course of study, but supplements it with aspects that are independent of the subject.

Guideline for interdisciplinary studies

For the modules of the interdisciplinary studies, the examination registration is to be carried out online in modularized study programs.
