Please log in to the Campus Portal and submit an application for the doctoral programme of your choice. The further procedure for subsequent online enrolment is described accordingly in the Campus Portal. No documents need to be submitted by post to the Student Registration Office.
In the Campus Portal, all required original documents can be uploaded as PDF files in the appropriate fields as part of the online enrolment process, including the approval document from the Board of Examiners for Doctoral Awards. Please also upload the originals of your degree certificates as PDF files, as the Student Registration Office does not have access to graduation documents and is obliged to record graduation data for statistical purposes.
Register online in the Campus Portal. After registering, you will receive an e-mail with your login details and further instructions.
Once you have registered, you can submit your application for the doctoral programme of your choice in the Campus Portal under “Login and application/enrolment”. Further procedures are described there.
As soon as your application status is set to “open admission” or “offer made”, you can complete the online enrolment process step by step in the Campus Portal.
You can upload all documents required for enrolment in the Campus Portal as original PDF files in the corresponding fields. No documents need to be sent by post to the Student Registration Office.
Once you have successfully completed all processes in the portal, you can view the further processing steps in the Campus Portal.
The processing of applications can take up to three weeks. If incomplete documents are submitted, the processing time will increase.
As soon as the status of your application changes to “enrolled“, you have been enrolled in the relevant degree programme and new access credentials for students (ZIM username) will be generated for you. You will receive these ZIM credentials by e-mail. Please note that your applicant identifier will be deactivated when the ZIM credentials are sent.

When you begin employment at the University or enrol, you will also receive a CampusCard, which you can use to access various services at the university. If you are employed at the University and enrolled for doctoral study at the same time, you are entitled to an ID for employees that additionally gets you discounts at the refectory and bus pass.
If you wish to use the buses in town, you should write (in paper form) to the Student Registration Office requesting an additional student ID card. This must be done every semester. Upon presentation of this additional student ID card, you can also obtain a refectory card with student rates from the Student Services Association for a deposit. Further information on the CampusCard can be found on the University's help portal.
