Calendar Integration

The electronic course catalogue (eKVV) offers the possibility of integrating the dates of courses in a variety of calendar programs. This way you can get a common overview of your personal and study-related appointments.

Publicly accessible calendars of courses, teaching staff and rooms are available. For information about where and how you can access these calendars, go to BIS Wiki.

How to use calendar integration

To be able to use the calendar integration, you must have a compatible calendar program installed on your computer. Alternatively, most current email programs and start-page portals now feature this functionality.

It is important that the respective program supports the iCalendar format.

A list of compatible programs and detailed instructions on how to integrate the calendar can be found at BIS Wiki .

Newsfeeds

The electronic course catalogue (eKVV) provides you with a range of newsfeeds that give you fastest possible access to the course catalogue announcements, changes in courses and other information relating to you.

A newsfeed is a summary of up-to-date short items of news that might be of interest to you as electronic course catalogue (eKVV) user.

Newsfeeds can be easily received using special news readers, but also using many modern Web browsers (such as Firefox) and email programs. For more detailed information on newsfeeds (especially on newsfeeds in RSS format), go, for example, to here.

The electronic course catalogue (eKVV) currently provides you with the following newsfeeds:

How to use newsfeeds

To be able to use the newsfeeds, you must have a news reader installed on your computer. Alternatively, most current Web browsers and email programs now feature this functionality.

Two formats are available for newsfeeds: The RSS 2.0 format and the Atom 0.3 format. Both formats provide similar functionality.

In your news reader, create a new RSS account and add the URL of your newsfeeds there.

As soon as new messages are available, these will be displayed immediately in your news reader.
