• A voluntary switch to the Bachelor’s program – or to the Master’s program in Art History (Curriculum 26W) – must be requested from the Office of Academic Affairs during the general admission period (by September 5 for the winter semester, by February 5 for the summer semester). To do so, send an email with the subject line “Change of Study Plan” to studienabteilung@uni-graz.at. This change is also possible at a later date, provided it is still within the general admission period.
• IMPORTANT: Before applying for a voluntary switch to curriculum version 26W, all coursework for on-campus courses must be completed (e.g., seminar papers must have been submitted by the course’s exam date).
• A complete overview of all eligible course credits can be found in the Equivalency List for the BA in Art History or the Equivalency List for the MA in Art History (appendices to the 26W curricula).
• After switching to UNIGRAZonline, please check in the “My Studies” app to make sure you can assign your completed courses to the correct modules. Correct assignment is required for the modules and courses to be displayed as “successfully completed” and to be taken into account during the prerequisite check when registering for courses. You can find instructions for assignment here. If assignment is not possible, you must submit an application for recognition of the exams. Information on how to apply can be found on the GEWI Dean’s Office website.

If you intend to complete your studies under the old bachelor’s degree program for the time being or at all, then no action is required on your part. You must complete your studies by September 30, 2030, at the latest. After that, you will automatically be subject to the new curriculum. Before this deadline, you may voluntarily switch to the new curriculum at any time within the general admission period.
