Contacting


Our aim is to provide good service to our students and we will gladly respond to your questions. However, many calls and E-Mails could be avoided, because the answers to the posed questions can already be found on our homepage. Answering these questions over and over takes a lot of time and capacity.

We would thus like you to first consider the information available on the homepage and on Moodle before contacting one of our chair members.

Questions concerning the courses should in general be posted in the discussion forums of the courses on Moodle. They will be answered there as well.
