Selection criteria for applicants for higher subject-related semesters
No.
It is fine if not all subject areas are filled in. To participate in the selection procedure, however, at least as many modules with corresponding ECTS credits must be entered as is necessary to meet the minimum admission requirements (see the "Requirements" tab).
If the module covers more than one of the mentioned subject areas (e.g. “Nutritional Physiology”), you can decide yourself in which subject area you would like to enter the module. Feel free to choose the subject area in which you still need points.
Modules which cannot be matched with one of the listed subject areas are not relevant for the selection procedure and can be left out.
Always match modules with the subject area which is most fitting. If you are unsure whether a certain module can be matched with one of the subject areas, please still include it in the list.
It will then be decided by the selection committee. Make sure to include a module description in your application documents. This will be used by the selection committee for the decision.
As a basis for an overview and proof of the study contents of Diplom‐ or state examination‐ programs you may for example submit curricula or overviews of the required courses (“scheinpflichtig” as well as “scheinfrei”).
It is important that these overviews include the workload (mostly in contact hours per week (SWS)) of the course.
Please include a copy of these overviews in your application documents. Instead of ECTS you can indicate the SWS in the online application form.
