Proseminar Assignment Winter 2025

The central registration for all computer science proseminars will open on Sep 5th.

This system is used to distribute students among the available seminars offered by the CS department. To register for any of the seminars, you have to register here until Oct 14th, 23:59 CET. You can select which seminar you would like to take, and will then be automatically assigned to one of them on Oct 17th.

Please note the following:

We aim to provide a fair mapping that respects your wishes, but at the same time also respects the preferences of your fellow students. Experience has shown that particular seminars are more popular than others, yet these seminars cannot fit all students. Please only select seminars if you are certain that you actually do want to complete a seminar this semester. If you have already obtained sufficient seminar credits, or plan to take other courses this semester, please do not choose any seminars. Students who drop out of seminars take away places from those, who might urgently need a space or are strongly interested in the topic. We encourage those students who wish to take a seminar this semester, to select their preferences for all available seminars, which eases the process to assign students that do not fit the overly popular seminars to another, less crowded one. So if you are serious about taking a seminar this semester, please select at least three seminars (with priority from "High" to "Low"). If you urgently need to be assigned to a seminar in the upcoming semester, choose at least five seminars (with priority from "High" to "Low"). The system will then prioritize you for assigning a seminar (yet not necessarily one of your choice). If you are really dedicated to one particular seminar, and you do not want any other seminar, please select the "No seminar" as second and third positive option. However, this may ultimately lead to the situation that you are not assigned to any seminar. Also, choosing "No seminar" as second/third option does not increase your chances of getting your first choice. The assignment will be performed by a constraint solver on Oct 16th, 2025. You will be added to the respective seminars automatically and be notified about this shortly thereafter. Please note that the assignment cannot be optimal for all students if you drop the assigned seminar, i.e., make only serious choices to avoid penalty to others.
