Part-time study programmes allow you to attend fewer courses per semester and thus prolong your studies. 
It is particularly suitable for improving the compatibility of study and work, family, care, or in the case of disabilities/chronic illnesses.

Important points:

• The study timetable must be adapted independently – if necessary, coordinate with the programme counselling service.
• Part-time semesters count as full university semesters and half semesters.
• Standard period of study continues
• Semester fee must be paid in full
• No exemption from the semester ticket

• Part-time study programmes: Fewer courses, times remain the same (mostly on weekdays).
• Extra occupational study programmes: Lectures take place in the evenings or at weekends, adapted to working people.

Clarify the possible effects of part-time study programmes in advance. We recommend counselling at the social counselling service of the Studierendenwerk Berlin.
