Communication and exchange
Various platforms and possibilities are available for online teaching and exchange among students:
The learning platform RWTH-Moodle enables the creation of virtual course rooms for different courses. Here you will find all relevant materials for courses and discussion forums for open questions. In a Moodle learning room created especially for first semester students, you will find important and binding information about your studies at our faculty, documents and a first semester support service. Your TIM identification serves as your login.
