How do I do the self-assessment for the application and what courses do I need?

 A self-assessment for fullfiling the requirements for the master’s programme is an obligatory part of your application documentation. All information given in the self-assessment has to be proven by adding corresponding pages from official module descriptions (e.g. “Studienordung” or “Modulhandbuch”). You have to list the courses and the corresponding number of ECTS which are necessary for fulfilling the master’s programmes requirements. The Admissions Committee will then decide about crediting the courses. It is not possible to give information on specific courses beforehand.

Can I apply for the Master’s in Statistics while already enrolled inanother Master’s program?

Yes, you can, but please consider the following:

  •  If you are currently enrolled in a similar Master’s program, you must
    apply for higher study semesters (höhere Fachsemester) and not for the
    first semester
  • You cannot pursue two similar Master’s degree programs simultaneously.
  • Credits from your other Master’s program can be transferred up to a
    maximum of 30 ECTS.

If you are interested in switching from your current Master’s program to
the Master’s in Statistics, or if you intend to study both programs
concurrently, please contact us before submitting your application.
