The exam period is here The new Semester is here It’s exam period once again, and naturally an adequate learning environment is very important for us students during this time. Consequently, it is particularly good news that from now on the MI-Magistrale as well as some other rooms in the MI building are available as study rooms for students.
But beware: To ensure that it remains this way, it is important that everyone adheres to the applicable hygiene rules! – Students are required to wear an FFP2 or medical mask throughout the building. – The maximum number of people posted at the entrance to study rooms may not be exceeded. – Upon entering a study room, a check-in by scanning the QRONITON code posted at the entrance is required. – Only designated seats may be used as learning spots. – The protective sheets available at the entrance must be used at all learning spots. – A minimum distance of 1.5 meters must be maintained. – Regular ventilation of study rooms is essential. – The instructions of staff enforcing hygiene measures must be followed.
If the 7-day incidence in Munich (district) is >50, A 2G-mandate (vaccinated or recovered; a test alone is insufficient) is always mandatory when using study rooms when entering any TUM building. Only valid certificates (QR-Codes) according to EU-standards and yellow vaccination certificates, each in combination with a valid photo ID, will be accepted. Other certificates have to be approved and converted to a EU-Standard compliant certificate in advance. Antigen rapid tests are valid for at most 24 hours, and PCR tests for at most 48 hours after the test has been conducted. Staying in a TUM building without a 2G certificate is an administrative offense and will be reported to authorities without exception.

Please note that seminar rooms and glass rooms may be needed at times for examinations or events organized by chairs. Should this be the case, such events have priority! Please check the TUMonline calendar (which is usually also displayed at the room entrance) before entering the room to see if it is free.
We are currently working on gradually opening seminar rooms as learning spaces for students. The above list of available rooms will be updated as more rooms become available.
We wish you good luck and much success with your exam preparation (and the new semester)!
