• Imprint https://uni-freiburg.de/en/imprint/

  The official University of Freiburg imprint gives the university contact details and Freiburg address. Used for university identity, city and country.

• Degree Programmes https://uni-freiburg.de/en/studies/degree-programmes/

  The official University of Freiburg programme catalogue and the related official API /wp-json/study-search/v1/studies show first-cycle and first-professional programmes including B.A. 1-field, B.A. 2-field, B.Sc. 1-field, polyvalent dual-major and State Examination.

  The catalogue presents programmes as fixed degree programmes with standard duration in semesters.

• What Degrees Are Available? https://uni-freiburg.de/en/studies/orientation/degrees/

  The official page describes degree structures: bachelor's programmes usually last 6 semesters and 180 ECTS, while Liberal Arts and Sciences and Molecular Medicine last 8 semesters.

  The page describes B.A. programmes with a major and minor, B.Sc. programmes with a major and an optional minor of up to 20 ECTS, and the polyvalent dual-major bachelor.

• Full-Time Studies https://uni-freiburg.de/en/studies/applying/international-applicants/full-time-studies/

  The official admissions page states that applicants apply for an undergraduate degree programme through the portal and follow the requirements of the chosen programme.

  This supports admission-level programme choice rather than ordinary post-enrollment programme choice after a common first stage.

• Transfer, Change of Subject, and Exchange of Places https://uni-freiburg.de/en/studies/during-your-studies/change-of-subject-and-exchange-of-places/

  The official page defines a change of subject as changing the major or minor in a bachelor's programme, and a change of degree programme as changing the intended degree.

  Restricted programmes require a new application and admission, while unrestricted programmes require a change of programme or subject procedure. This is boundary evidence: change is administratively possible, but it is not an ordinary post-enrollment major or programme choice architecture.

• Certificate Programmes https://uni-freiburg.de/en/studies/during-your-studies/additional-qualifications/certificate-programmes/

  The official page describes certificate programmes as additional qualifications taken alongside the degree programme.

  They can count toward the degree programme only depending on examination regulations, so they do not justify raising programChoice as a minor or second main pathway inside the standard programme.

• Eucor Student Mobility https://www.eucor-uni.org/en/studies/student-mobility

  The official Eucor page describes free mobility: students may take one or several courses at Eucor universities while remaining enrolled at their home university and without additional registration or semester fees.

  With departmental approval, these courses earn ECTS toward the degree. This supports courseChoice level 4.

• Eucor Students Outgoing https://uni-freiburg.de/internationaloffice-en/eucor-the-european-campus/students/outgoing/

  The official University of Freiburg outgoing Eucor mobility page describes the route: a Freiburg student selects courses in another Eucor university's catalogue, checks recognition with the coordinator, registers mobility in Mobility-Online, prepares a Learning Agreement, enrolls at the host university free of charge and later submits the transcript for ECTS recognition.

  Recognition requires coordination, but the route applies to individual courses and not only to a full exchange semester.
