22.20 On what legal basis is the profile feature "part-time" checked?

Part-time study programmes are so-called study programmes with a special profile. According to § 12(6) MRVO, study programmes with a special profile “have a coherent study programme concept that appropriately reflects the specific characteristics of the profile.” For the purposes of evaluation, this means, according to the explanatory notes to this section: “If a higher education institution advertises or identifies a study programme with specific features (e.g., […] part-time […]), these features are part of the study programme’s profile and are therefore also subject to evaluation. In such cases, the criteria listed in [§ 12], paragraphs 1 through 5, must be applied in light of the specific profile and from the respective specific perspective, and must be measured against the specific requirements to be defined by the respective higher education institutions.”
