Students who have attended several Studium Oecologicum courses can receive the "Studium Oecologicum" certificate. The following requirements are necessary to obtain the certificate:

• At least one foundation course:
  Foundational courses are identified in the Transdisciplinary Course Program (TCP) by course designations 1SOG....
• At least two topics courses:
  Topics courses are identified in the TCP program by course designations 1SOT... in the TCP program. After consultation with the coordination of the Studium Oecologiucm, additional selected "disciplinary courses" from the regular teaching activities of the faculties can be included in the certificate.
• At least 12 credit points (CP):
  3 to 6 CP are assigned to the courses in the Studium Oecologicum. At least 12 CP are required for the certificate.

The certificate certifies the acquisition of sound basic knowledge and interdisciplinary key competencies on issues of sustainable development and is issued by the University of Tübingen. The required certificates can be acquired over several semesters. In certain cases, credits on SD topics from other universities, including the Virtual Academy Bremen, can also be recognized.

As soon as at least 12 CP have been completed, these can be sent by e-mail (transcript of records or certificates scanned legibly or photographed) to the Department of Interdisciplinary Education and Vocational Orientation. Please send the e-mail to: kursanmeldungspam prevention@tracs.uni-tuebingen.de

Important notes:

1. The certificate is issued in German. If an English version of the certificate is required as an alternative, this must be communicated at the time of application. A subsequent change is unfortunately not possible.
2. If more courses are taken than are required for the certificate, these can also be listed on the certificate. We therefore recommend that you only apply for the certificate at the end of your studies.
3. Please do not use the student e-mail address for e-mail contact, as this can no longer be reached after exmatriculation.

After completion of the certificate, students will be informed by e-mail. As the certificate is signed by people from different departments, the process can take up to four weeks.
