All about your studies

Our course catalogue is available at www.ksl-vv.unibe.ch. Please note that some courses may be published only shortly before the beginning of the semester. Therefore, we suggest checking the courses offered in previous semesters to get an overview of the course offer in your study program. Our fact sheet on how to find courses is available here: 

Courses marked with "HS" are taking place in fall semester, courses marked with "FS" in spring semester.

Course registration is only possible after you receive your campus account (the campus account is a login used to access a variety of platforms and tools). Exchange students will receive further information on how to register for courses and exams a few weeks before the semester starts.
