Vaccination offers for students
For everyone over 16 years of age, there is now the possibility to get vaccinated against COVID-19 quickly. This also applies to people who do not live in the city of Nuremberg, but are only staying here for the moment. Vaccinations at the vaccination center are now also possible without an appointment. Depending on the workload, you may have to wait a little.
Winter semester 2021/2022: Campus life again at last
WiSo sees good reasons to enter the new semester with great optimism. Against this backdrop, FAU WiSo is planning to largely return to face-to-face teaching for the winter semester 2021/2022, on-site at the Nuremberg City Campus, not on the Internet. This is because teaching, learning and research need direct exchange, personal encounters between students, and contact with lecturers.

Summer Semester 2021 – Digital Start in the First Week of Lectures
The WiSo-Virtuellplus concept is planned at the faculty for the summer semester 2021. It aims to ensure that selected courses can be enriched with presence elements in parallel to digital content, which can be attended on a voluntary basis. By digitalizing all compulsory modules, the faculty is able to guarantee that it remains possible to study all study programs.
Review: succesful exam phase of the winter semester
More than 10 days ago, the last WiSo exams took place at the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre in strict compliance with the hygiene guidance. The hygiene guidance was specified through extensive organizational measures, e.g. regulations on entry and exit, definition of responsibilities, higher personnel deployment, detailed schedules and training of the examination supervisors.
WiSo-Virtuell becomes WiSo-Virtuellplus
Successful start of the examination period
On 15 February 2021, FAU officially started the examination period with a strict hygiene concept, which has already proven itself in the summer semester and in an adapted form during the attendance events in the winter semester. We would like to thank all students and staff for their exemplary adherence to the regulations and for making the examinations run smoothly.
Exam period at WiSo begins
Examinations at WiSo can take place in presence under strict conditions. Students are explicitly required to keep their distance before and after the examination and to wear their mask on the FAU premises as well as at other examination venues such as the trade fair. There is no obligation to wear an FFP2 mask.

A Merry Christmas to you all and a good and, above all, healthy start to 2021.
Information events of the master programs
If a bachelor's degree has already been achieved, a master's program is the perfect choice to further expand the expertise.
