About the MEd examination board

An inter-faculty examination board has been formed for the organisation of examinations in the Magister teaching profession degree programmes and for the tasks assigned by these regulations. The examination board consists of the Director of Studies of the Erfurt School of Education (chairperson) and eight other members. The chairperson and the deans of studies of the faculties are natural members of the examination board. A Dean can permanently appoint another lecturer from the faculty to represent the Dean of Studies instead of the Dean of Studies. One further member from the group of lecturers at the University of Erfurt, one member from the group of academic employees of the Erfurt School of Education and two members from the group of students at the Erfurt School of Education are elected by the Senate*. The term of office of the members is generally three years. The term of office of the student members of the examination board is one year. Re-election is permitted.

*Director of Studies, academic staff and students are elected if they are members of the ESE
