Before you register for any courses, please check whether the classes or exam dates for the courses in question overlap. It is your responsibility to ensure that there are no overlapping activities. For this reason, before you register for any courses, please check for:
If you have to attend a compulsory course along with your elective course, you also have to remember to check for any overlaps between the compulsory course and the elective course.
Please be aware that your registration is binding.
After the deadline for registration, changes may occur in the schedules, which may cause classes and/or exam overlap. You can prevent overlapping activities by looking at the “course clusters for autumn 2024”. (Available from April 15)
Courses in the same course cluster do not have any overlapping classes or exams. You are free to select courses from different clusters, but if you do this, you need to be highly aware that classes or exams might overlap.
You are automatically registered for the compulsory course 'Advanced Political Analysis: Designing and Conducting Political Analysis' on your first semester.
Due to your academic regulations:
If you plan on going on exchange or taking a project-based internship, you shouldn't register for regular seminars in the coming semester.
Project-based internships and perhaps an individual political science seminar must be chosen on the student self-service. If you are going on exchange or plan on taking a credit module in another programme or university, you don't have to do anything in the registration period.
In case your plans to study abroad or take a project-based internship fall through, you may register for seminars after the deadline - for further help please contact kandidat.bss@au.dk
If the number of registrations for a course exceeds the number of available places on that course, the places will be allocated by drawing lots.
If you are not granted a place on one or more of your desired courses, you must register anew in the second registration period.
If you initially registered for three courses but are now only able to see two courses in your overview of registrations, you were not allocated a place on all your desired courses in the first round of registration. This means that you will be able to register for a third course in the second registration period.
If you did not receive the number of courses you wished to register for or if you forgot to register for courses in the autumn 2024, you can register for courses in the Student Self-service system (STADS) via mystudies.au.dk in the period 14 to 18 August 2024.
The allocation of places will take place on a first-come, first-served basis, and it will be possible to register for a course as long as there are vacant places on the course. Once a course has been filled, it will no longer be possible to register for the course in question.
The list of available courses can be updated on a regular basis.
It is important that you check up on course clusters, time and exam overlap before you register.
All students who have been registered for their selected courses are bound by their choice. This means that you will not be able to cancel or change your registration for elective courses once the deadline for registration has expired, and the elective course is a binding part of your study programme.
If you are registered for a course, you can only withdraw from this registration if instead, the semester in question are to be used for:
Dispensation to cancel registration
If none of the above reasons for cancellation apply to you, you can apply for a dispensation to withdraw from or change elective courses, but only if exceptional circumstances exist and are deemed to impact your ability to complete the course. You apply for dispensation via mystudies.au.dk.
If you have a Bachelor’s degree from another university or if you took a break between your Bachelor's and Master’s degree programme, or you have applied to change your study programme, you must register for courses at the first semester in the Student Self-service system via mystudies.au.dk in the period 14 to 18 August 2024.
The allocation of places will take place on a first-come, first-served basis, and it will be possible to register for a course as long as there are vacant places on the course. Once a course has been filled, it will no longer be possible to register for the course in question.
