Diploma requirements for Master's programmes
Initial master's programmes will require a previous Bachelor's degree in the same field of study or, where indicated by the specific programme, in a related field of study. Candidates applying for admission should also consult the academic prerequisites for details.
Advanced master's programmes, however, are intended for students who already posssess a master's degree. Further, most programmes require one year of full-time study, while others take two years full-time.
Students applying for advanced programmes should consult the academic prerequisites for details. Under these advanced programmes, some may require general aptitude evaluations, tests and, in some cases, a limit to the number of students accepted in a particular programme. All of these provisions may be cumulative: e.g., even if a student is eligible from a strictly legal point of view, admission may still be denied for academic or other reasons. Together, these provisions make admission for international students quite competitive and, for some advanced programmes, highly selective. In these cases, the university will decide on each application individually, taking into account the academic qualifications of the candidate.
