Current information

Commissioning of examiners

11.03.2026

In a university context, "commissioning an examiner" means that the university officially authorises a person to conduct examinations. This commissioning is made by the examination board and ensures that the examiners are professionally qualified and authorised to conduct examinations. Examinations are not permitted by law if the examiners have not been commissioned properly.

The examiners are commissioned each semester by the examination board. If several examiners have been commissioned for a module examination, students have a choice. However, it is permissible to change examiners and assessors at short notice for objective reasons. There is therefore no entitlement to a specific examiner.
