If you’ve missed the registration deadline but would still like to take part in Exploration Week FHNW, you’ll have another chance from 15 June 2026. Places that have become available again will be released then. You’ll find the relevant form under Registration.

If you have registered but are unable to attend due to paid work, work placements or personal reasons, you can still withdraw from Exploration Week FHNW by emailing explorationweek@fhnw.ch by 12 June 2026. After that, the module will be considered unfulfilled.

Your placement was made by the Exploration Week FHNW team and entered into the system by the administration. Following this process, your module will be visible under My Studies. This may take a while. As long as you have received our confirmation email regarding your registration, you can assume that you are registered and do not need to take any further action.

You can find the locations of the various modules on the Modules page in the module description. The room for the module is visible under My Studies. Before Exploration Week, we will send the final programme, including the locations of the events, to all participants.

The modules offered as part of Exploration Week are part of the curriculum, and all participants who successfully complete the modules will be awarded the corresponding ECTS credits. The head of your degree programme is responsible for ensuring that the ECTS credits earned during Exploration Week are recognised as part of your degree programme.

The invitation to the kick-off event will be sent by email either by the Exploration Week FHNW team or by the module coordinators. It will contain all the key details and information you need to prepare for the event.

Please feel free to contact the FHNW Exploration Week team by email. If you have a personal matter that you would prefer not to share with the whole team, you can contact Nenya Biedermann (nenya.biedermann@fhnw.ch).

During the assignment process, we tried to accommodate as many requests as possible. However, it may be the case that we saw your request but were unable to fulfil it. We have taken care to include as many different degree programmes as possible in the modules, whilst also taking as many priorities as possible into account. Thank you for your understanding.
