Perspectives of Computer Science

IMPORTANT: Exceptional late exam registration now possible

Written on 09.01.2025 18:05 by Sven Rahmann

Dear students of Perspectives of CS,

because of many problems with LSF/HISPOS registration, unclear communication from our side and after consultation with the exam offices, we have decided to re-open LSF registration for a VERY SHORT PERIOD of time (see below).

As communicated at the beginning of the course, exam registration for the Perspectives course was originally only possible until November 30, 2024. In general, you are always responsible by yourself for registering in LSF in good time. Exceptionally, the registration in the LSF will be activated for you from TODAY until Wednesday, January 15 until 23:00.

Please take advantage of this if you wish to register, as there will be no further exceptions. Register TODAY. Note that you CANNOT unregister if you register now.

If you have problems registering in the LSF, please send an email to the Computer Science Coordination Office (studium@cs.uni-saarland), clearly stating your wish to register for the exam. You must also attach proof (screenshot) of what the problem is with LSF. Please do not send e-mails concerning this to course instructors or organizers, as this cannot count as official registration, and we do not have system access anyway. Exam registration is exclusively handled through exam offices for legal purposes.

If the exam office of your study program (such as LLM IT & Recht) requires an additional proof of registration, please also inform them.

If you are an economics student, exchange student (e.g. Erasmus+) or junior student in the Department of Computer Science, it may not be possible to register in the LSF. If you are in this situation and have not registered by e-mail by 30.11., proceed as above and clearly indicate your study program.

Important:

• All email communication MUST come from your uni-saarland student email address; otherwise it will be ignored.
• Do not write an email if LSF registration is possible for your study program and you were successful.

Please use the following email subject: Registration for Perspectives of Computer Science exam

Text body:
I would like to register for the exam of Perspectives of Computer Science.

Matriculation number:

Full name:

Study program:  (e.g. exchange student or junior student)

(end of email text)
--- 

Do attach a screenshot with an error message if you are writing the email for a technical reason; otherwise, the study program is explanation enough.
Your status & situation will then be checked and you will be added to the verified list of participants in order to receive a certificate at the end. 

The mixture of different systems for different programs and the impossibility of a uniform exam registration for this course is very unfortunate, and we are working on better solutions for next year. We apologize for the inconveniences.

Note that I have deleted all emails sent to me, as I am not legally allowed to handle registrations.

Best regards,
Sven Rahmann
