Important: We have sent out two emails via the university distribution list. In the meantime, we have noticed that there are a lot of students who are not yet finally enrolled and therefore do not receive them. That’s why you can read the emails again HERE
Hello dear Erstis,
In cooperation with the Faculty VII of the TU Berlin (GKWI) we, the student council team, organise the orientation days at our faculty every semester. Unfortunately, due to the current situation, we can only hold the orientation days in a modified form, mainly online. To our great regret, the Erstifahrt will not be able to take place at all.
We would like to share the most important information about the start of your studies available to you digitally. In addition to documents to download and explanatory videos to watch, there will also be livestreams at the beginning of April where you can ask your questions and receive information. A presence event is also planned, but this will depend on the current requirements for the containment of the coronavirus, which is why changes may be made at short notice.
This semester, students of the Industrial Engineering and Management programme at the TU Berlin will start at Faculty VII:
In the Bachelor’s degree
und in Master’s degree
You can find study and examination regulations compiled by us via the button or always up to date directly on the websites of the degree programmes
Study and examination regulationsPlease note: The programme of the orientation days will be held in German only.

19.04.2022
Start of the lecture period of the summer semester 22
10 am
Livestream “Welcome Dekan/Studiendekan” of Faculty VII.
The first event is especially for the First Semester of Faculty VII, where the faculty will welcome you.
11 am
Livestream “Introduction WiIng B.Sc. & M.Sc.” of Faculty VII.
The programme coordinators welcome you and give you a special introduction to your programme.
2 pm
Livestream “Live-Stream Q&A – by students for students” from Fachschaftsteam.
Simply a big Zoom conference where we explain the roughest framework of the study programme and you can get rid of the first burning questions.
1 pm
“Mentoring Programme”
The mentoring will also take place entirely online.
This event is not compulsory and there will be no important, necessary information or anything similar, but rather a relaxed get-together in small groups. You will be divided into manageable groups, assigned a student from a higher semester and thus have the opportunity to get to know each other, ask questions in person and more. Please use the link above to register for mentoring.
7 pm
Zoom-Bar
In the Zoombar you have the opportunity to get to know each other in a more relaxed setting.
This is where friendships are made for life!
You can expect games, a lively atmosphere and lots of fun!
The Zoombar is also a great opportunity to have a beer and clarify any questions that may have remained unanswered during the mentoring session.
We look forward to seeing you there.
You can find out everything else from your mentors.
10 am
Digital “workshop morning” from the Fachschaftsteam.
We would like to offer you various workshops in which you can learn about topics from us students and, of course, ask questions. We have created a varied offer for you:
10:00 Uhr Tipps für Bachelor und Master Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen
10:30 Uhr Digitales Campusleben
11:00 Uhr Wie bewerbe ich mich richtig?
11:30 bis 12:00 Uhr Kurze Mittagspause
12:00 Uhr Wie funktioniert Hochschulpolitik?
12:30 Uhr Auslandssemester

Digital “Student Initiative Fair”.
Not only we, but also other initiatives of our faculty and beyond are interested in getting to know you, to present themselves and their work and to show you how you can get involved at the university as a student to make a difference. If you are interested, then come along and hear first-hand what they are doing.
3pm
Last but not least, we would like to give you one last Zoom conference where last questions and uncertainties can be resolved. Never hesitate with your questions and ask too many rather than too few. Starting your studies on site can sometimes be difficult, so we want to make it as easy as possible for you online. No registration, just spontaneous visits are welcome – pester us with questions.
7pm
Game night
On the games evening, independent of the mentor programme and with a somewhat less humid focus, joint online games are planned in various rooms. From skribbl to Codenames to Quiplash (and many more), there should be something for everyone, so come along and play!
Zoom-Link Game night
Due to this year’s circumstances, we are unfortunately unable to offer you a proper mentoring programme and getting to know each other activities will also be difficult for the time being. Therefore, we would like to introduce you to some networking opportunities.

How does studying work at all? How many modules do I have to take? What are these credits all about? And what is the difference between lectures, tutorials and tutorials?
We will try to answer such introductory questions in the livestreams on 06.04.2021. There will be an official introduction of the GKWI, in which the dean of our faculty will introduce himself and welcome you. Afterwards, there will be a livestream from us, where we will explain everything to you from the student side and you can ask us any questions Livestream Fakultät (Passwort: ) Livestream Fachschaftsteam (Passwort: ) (Status: SS 2021)
You already know how the degree programme is structured and that there are different compulsory and elective modules, but you’re still asking yourself: Where do I get my timetable?
Bad news: You won’t get a timetable from anyone. Good news: You can easily choose your modules yourself! Of course, since some modules build on each other, you shouldn’t just do it on a whim, but at best follow the study plan (depending on the specialisation) and make one or two changes if necessary. You can find information on the study plan, e.g. in the GKWI study guide.
You have to create your timetable and register for tutorials on Moses by xxx. But how and where do you do that? Which portal has which function and why are there so many different ones?
Well, the reason why there are so many different ones is due to the rather poor IT infrastructure of the TU Berlin. A changeover is currently taking place (to tuPORT/SAP), which should bring everything together in the long term.
Nevertheless, you still need various portals at the moment, such as ISIS, Moses, Qispos und Tubit for exam and tutorial registrations. There are also other tools that are not absolutely necessary but can be useful, such as the course catalogue, which has been integrated into Moses since this semester.
The GKWI tries to provide you with all the important information about starting your studies via the following ISIS course:ISIS-Kurs
In addition, we have created a few videos for you in which you can learn about the basic features of the degree programme. (Status: SS 2021)
Since it is not easy to create a timetable and it is very confusing to gather information, we explain it to you in the following video. (Status: SS 2021)
You can find an overview of the compulsory and elective modules for your degree programme in the modul transfer system (link for Bachelor) on Moses. Simply select the latest StuPO version and the current semester.
A detailed explanation of which portal is for what and how to register can be found in the following video. (Status: SS 2021)
Not all industrial engineers are the same. At the TU Berlin, you have the opportunity to choose between seven different technical specialisations in your Bachelor’s degree and nine in your Master’s degree. Accordingly, you also have to take different specialisation modules.
Not sure which specialisation is right for you? The departments responsible for each specialisation will introduce you to them and you can find out what makes each technical specialisation special and what career opportunities you will have after completing your studies.
Studying does not only consist of lectures and exams. You can also do a lot at TU Berlin outside the (virtual) lecture hall. From language courses, to sports activities such as skiing, to the university choir, to psychological counselling and continuing education workshops – there are many opportunities, most of them even free of charge.
Unfortunately, there is no central contact point to find all of this, but you have to find out for yourself. That’s why we’ve put together an overview for you and will be happy to give you more tips on request. Because you will get personal added value from not just going to university to study.
In addition to all the learning, fun should not be neglected. That’s why there are several student initiatives that ensure an active student culture at the TU Berlin. For example, there are several cafés and bars on campus that are run by students. There are also initiatives that are politically active both internally and externally at the university. There are also initiatives that offer services such as internship placement or international counselling. There are also initiatives that give students the opportunity to gain practical experience, e.g. in management consulting or marketing. In general, many events are organised in which students can participate for free. Of course, there is also the inter-faculty AStA.
In the following document you can find the information about the specialisations.

You choose a specialisation indirectly by taking the corresponding specialisation modules. When registering for exams, you then choose the area in which you would like to receive credit for the module. This also means that you do not have to decide immediately in the first semester. However, if you are already sure, you can indicate your specialisation at the examination office, e.g. in the declaration of enrolment.
In the following video, some important organisations introduce themselves to you, but these are by no means all the offers.(Status: SoSe 2020)
International Affairs Office Centre for Entrepreneurship Bibliothek Wirtschaft & Management Button Psychological counselling Language and Culture Exchange TU-Sport
Further offers and to what extent these offers are currently also available digitally must be researched individually.
The best thing about the student initiatives is that you can not only use what they have to offer, but also participate yourself. That’s why you will find information about the various initiatives of Faculty VII below. Information about us, the Fachschaftsteam, can of course be found here on our homepage.
Übersicht der VereinigungenAre you sure you’ve googled correctly?
This may be due to the fact that the selected module is not offered every semester but only in a certain rotation – i.e. either only in the summer or winter semester. In order to be able to take this module, you must therefore wait a semester, as is the case, for example, with Introduction to Computer Science. Information on the rotation in which a module is offered can be found in the module description on Moses (Bachelor, Master).
It can be said at the outset that not all practices are registered via Moses, nor do all practices require registration. Modules from the integration area and those with laboratory practicals are often registered on Moses. If the module to be taken is not displayed on Moses, it is also very likely that no registration is required for it. Information on the structure of a module and the requirements for participation in tutorials can be obtained from the chair itself and therefore usually via their announcements in the respective ISIS course.
General: You do not have to register for the specialisation, so no applications are necessary.
In the course of the degree programme, you should and must decide on a specialisation, depending on which modules you have to take in engineering. This decision does not have to be made in the first semester and can simply be made by taking the corresponding modules. Once you have decided on a specialisation, you should check the module list to see which modules are required for it and then take them. If modules belong to the compulsory modules of several specialisations, your own specialisation is only officially determined from the very first clear module. In Moses, you can enter your own specialisation, which means that only necessary modules that can be taken are displayed in the tutorial selection.
However, an application would still have to be submitted to change a specialisation.
Generally, you never register for modules, but only for exams. This is usually done via Quispos, in rare cases also via the so-called “yellow slip”. However, pay attention to the examination form of the module. In the case of portfolio examinations, registration must take place no later than six weeks after the start of the examination or before the first examination has been taken; in the case of written examinations, registration can usually take place up to one week before the date of the examination.
You can find more information in our Youtube: Link
If you register for an ISIS course, this does not count as registration, is therefore non-binding and does not force you to take part in the module. You can also easily unsubscribe by clicking on the cogwheel symbol at the top left.
Due to the current situation, some modules will probably not be offered this semester. You can find most of the information on the faculties’ pages. For modules of our Faculty VII, you can look under the following link . In addition, the individual chairs often also write on their homepage which modules are offered and which are not. Another option is to check whether the ISIS course can be found and to look up further information there after enrolling (currently mostly possible without an enrolment key). The course catalogue will be integrated into Moses for the first time this semester and will provide you with information there.
