Admission to the Master's programme

Attendance:

Attendance is mandatory. You can miss one out of five sessions without losing points. You will lose all participation marks if you miss two sessions and you will automatically fail the class if you miss more than two sessions.

Please note, for all students who want to attend the course it is absolutely essential that you attend the first session as failure to do so will result in your exclusion from the course. (If you fall ill, please contact the lecturer as soon as possible and provide a medical certificate.)
This is to ensure that students on the waiting list have the opportunity to move up!
