M.Sc. Mathematics — Profile Area Geography

When choosing Profile Area Geography, modules amounting to 18 CP must be selected. In the case of the "T1" modules "Basic Knowledge" and "Basic Competence", there must not be any similarity of topics with modules already taken (e.g. if "Basic Competence Urban Geography" has already been taken, "Basic Knowledge Urban Geography" may no longer be selected). If the profile area geography (depending on the examination regulations) has not yet been taken in the Bachelor's program or if corresponding modules have not been completed in the key competence area, 12 CP must be acquired in modules marked with "T1" and one of the modules marked with "M1" or "M2" must also be completed. Otherwise, at least 12 CP must be acquired in modules marked "T1", "T2" and "T3".
