First semester

When planning your studies, your letter of admission will give you important information about individual requirements, and the study plan will give you a good overview of the courses to be chosen:

• In the Requirements section of your letter of admission, you can see which three of the Foundational Courses you have to choose for M1.
• Please be aware, that in order to fulfill admission requirements some students will have to choose additional courses during their first semesters. These can be found in the Admission Requirements section of your letter of admission. More information about admission requirements can be found in the FAQ.
• Keep in mind that you have to choose two out of the three interdisciplinary clusters. Please choose your courses accordingly.

At the beginning of each semester you are required to register via LSF for your courses within the designated deadlines. Exceptions from these deadlines can be made for first semester students. You can find a detailed guide on how to use LSF in the FAQ section of this website.

End of the Semester
Towards the end of each semester, you have to register for your exams and course work. Be aware that course registration does not automatically entail registration for an exam or course work.

Coursework and module examinations must always be registered via BOSS. You can find a detailed guide on how to use BOSS in the FAQ section of this website.

Please also note the respective deadlines for registration and deregistration. If registration or deregistration is impossible for technical reasons, please contact Thomas Bergermann in the Central Examination Office.

Internships
Module 9 focuses on gaining practical experience during an internship. You can deepen your chosen focus of study in international organizations, associations, foundations and many other institutions. More detailed information about the module can be found in the module handbook.

In the internship guide, you will find all relevant information and requirements on how to register and complete the internship. Additional information can be found in the FAQ. If you need inspiration on what internships to consider, you can ask the Marepol Coordination for a list of internship opportunities.

If you have questions about the master’s program please look at the study plan, the module handbook, the examination regulations, FAQ and guides, which you can all find in the Documents and FAQs section on this page, first before you contact the MaREPol coordinator.
