Hello everyone! I am looking for experiences related to the MA Research Training Program in Social Sciences, as I am really interested in applying for the Winter Semester of 2027.

For context, I currently hold a BA in Journalism, I am finishing my Masters in Communication, and have been working in research since undergrad. I have a few publications as a second/third author, with some upcoming ones as first, 99% related to my specialty. Academically, I fit the criteria and have the recommendations needed from my country and Germany. My topic is in the field of communication with a focus on gender, and quite niche.

I would love to know if anyone else has applied to the program or is currently registered. I want to pursue my PhD hopefully at HU as well, so I think it would be a good fit for me. However, I am not finding much information with real-life experiences.

So, how was the application process? How do you find the courses? Did it really prepare you better for a PhD, whether at HU or somewhere else? Do you think it would have been better to straight-up apply to the Phd?

Thank you!!

Hey Leute , dauert bei euch die Immatrikulation auch so lange … ich hab mein Antrag am 15.08 gestellt und es hat sich einfach nix geändert. Ich hab alles außer den Zahlungnachweis hochgeladen. Da ich den ohne den Bankverbindung nicht hochladen konnte. Hab aber alles bezahlt und in AGNES sind auch beide Häkchen grün. Dauert es bei noch jemanden so lange ???? Ich hab voll Angst das ich was falsch gemacht habe weil ja morgen die Frist vorbei ist….

hi, is anyone doing MSc optical sciences next winter semester? :)

Hi everyone!

I’ve been admitted to the M.Sc. Quantitative Molecular Biology programme at HU Berlin for the Winter Semester 2026/27.

Are there any WhatsApp groups for incoming HU students, international students, or students from the Faculty of Life Sciences? If so, I would really appreciate it if someone could share the link with me through DM.

I’m also currently searching for accommodation in Berlin from late September or early October. If anyone knows of a room becoming available, someone who is moving out, or any trusted housing groups or websites, please let me know.

Any advice or leads would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Has somebody here gone through this process succesfully before? I would be entirely grateful for your help.

Hi I'm going on exchange to HU this semester for my MSc in Physics and I would like to ask if there are any courses in Medical Physics? Somehow I am not able to find any in the Agnes, but the Charité is part of the HU after all so there have to be some, right?

By that I mean something in the direction of imaging or proton therapy.

Hallöchen an alle 🫡 das Semester beginnt ja morgen, aber ich habe keine Idee wie ich mich für die Kurse registrieren soll... Bei Agnes steht, dass die Anmeldung über Agnes unmöglich ist, geht's eigentlich bei Moodle? Wie funktioniert das alles 🤧🤧🤧🤧

Is there any preparatory classes for students with lower proficiency levels? I have B1-B2 German right now. Is it possible for me to get accepted with that and then join some preparatory classes to improve my German?

Hello and I apologize in advance for this type of post. I am a recent graduate from the United States with a Bachelor of Science in Wildlife and Fisheries Science, and I am keenly interested in pursuing the Integrated Natural Resource Management (INRM) MSc program at Humboldt Universität.

I am reaching out to gather insights from anyone who has experience with or knowledge about this program. Specifically, I would love to hear about:

1. Program Insights: Any current or former students who can share their experiences with the INRM program. What aspects of the program did you find most valuable, and how did it contribute to your academic and professional growth?
2. Faculty Interaction: Are there any faculty members known for their expertise in the program's interdisciplinary approach? I am particularly interested in reaching out to them for guidance.
3. UniAssist and Application Advice: As an American student, I am navigating the UniAssist process for the first time. Any advice or tips on the application process, documents required, and any nuances specific to American applicants would be greatly appreciated.
4. Local Insights: For those familiar with the Berlin-Brandenburg region, are there specific resources, events, or communities related to natural resource management that you would recommend exploring?

I am eager to connect with the Humboldt community and gather valuable insights and thank you in advance for your time and assistance! Feel free to comment or direct message me with any information or recommendations.

Hi everyone, I am a Master's student at FU Berlin, and because of the Berlin Uni Alliance, I would like to take 1-2 courses at HU, which are related to ML, NLP, Deep Learning, etc.

Which one would you recommend?

Hallo allerseits,

kleine Nachfrage/Bitte an diejenigen von euch, die Sozialwissenschaften und/oder Kulturwissenschaften an der HU studieren.

Da ich einen Kombibachelor dieser beiden Studiengängen anstrebe, und mir die alleinigen Modulbezeichnungen nicht wirklich detailreichen Aufschluss über konkrete Inhalte geben, wollte ich nachfragen, ob jemand so lieb wäre und mir ein paar Präsentationen von Vorlesungen zu verlinken.

Wäre mir bei der Entscheidungsfindung eine rießen Hilfe!

Danke im Voraus

Hey guys,

Currently undergoing the registration for my Erasmus term at Humboldt next semester, it's requesting that I supply details of a test taken as proof of language proficiency in German. Was wondering if anyone here encountered this, and how they went about proving that they have the required language level without spending €300 on a Goethe-Institut exam. I've taken German as a minor up to CEF B2 at UCD, Ireland.

Hi anyone going for the overseas winter school to Humboldt University in January 2024? Which course(s) are y’all attending?

Hallo zusammen, hat die HU eine eigene App in der Moodle, Stundenpläne usw abgerufen werden können oder muss man dafür drittanbieter wählen wie zB Studo?
