A self-assessment for fulfiling 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. “Studienordnung” or “Modulhandbuch”). You have to list the courses and the corresponding number of ECTS which are necessary for fulfilling the Master’s programme’s requirements. The Admissions Committee will then decide about crediting the courses. It is not possible to give information on specific courses beforehand.

The application periods can be found on the “Academic calendars and deadlines” page of the HU Berlin for all study programmes. The entry referring to the Statistics Master’s Programme is “Master of Arts/Science mit Zulassungsbeschränkung”.

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.
