Digital exam rooms
You have the opportunity to take e-exams in the HWR Berlin premises presented here using the university’s own hardware and software. Rooms with different capacities are available for this purpose at both the Schöneberg and Lichtenberg campuses.
In addition to the already known e-exam rooms, two more rooms are now available in Lichtenberg in House 6B, each with 44 seats. We are confident that these new rooms will optimize room distribution during the digital exams.
Usage scenarios
Another significant change that can have a major impact on the implementation of e-exams on site is the prioritization of e-exams over teaching in the e-exam rooms. We owe this new approach to all those who have already conducted their e-exams in person. We would like to thank you for your interest and personal commitment, which makes our cooperation so pleasant. Please note that this regulation does not apply to other PC rooms and IT labs.
