In the Master of Education degree for teaching at Gymnasium and in the study module history as a \u201cminor subject\u201d in the Master of Education degree program in combination with Fine Arts or Music (non-artistic minor), adequate knowledge of Latin (Latinum or state supplementary examination) is required. It is the student’s responsibility to acquire the required language proficiency through preliminary courses, accompanying courses, or support courses at or outside the university.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The qualifying examination in Latin (Latinum) is a standard language examination in Germany. If you were unable to take this examination abroad but have a command of Latin, you can either take the corresponding examination at JGU in the Classical Philology department before enrollment or submit your foreign certificates to the Aufsichts- und Dienstleistungsdirektion (ADD, Supervisory and Service Directorate) in Trier. The ADD can then check whether they are equivalent to the qualifying examination in Latin (Latinum).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At JGU Mainz, applications for a master’s degree program in the subject of history (M.A.: discipline of history; M.Ed.: teacher education) are managed via an applicant portal in JOGU-StINe. The following information is displayed there during the procedure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n<\/jgu-base-image>\n\n\n

Please do not be put off by the reference made to a \u201crequired aptitude test\u201d. In fact, there is no such aptitude test for either the Master of Arts History or the Master of Education History. It is merely an reminder that JGU must check all applications to determine whether the formal requirements for enrollment in the degree program are met. Therefore, \u201captitude test\u201d is simply an error in the online application portal itself that JGU Mainz cannot correct. We ask for your understanding – and to kindly ignore the information.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-notificationbanner>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/jgu-base-section>\n\n\n

Model curricula are recommendations. You are not obliged to adhere to all parts of the model curricula of your degree programs. Formally binding are the participation requirements for modules as formulated in the corresponding module catalog of your degree program. This results in the respective model course structure as a plausible course of study. For the first two semesters in particular, we strongly recommend that you stick exactly to your model in order to find your way around the degree program. If you have any questions, or in exceptional cases, you are welcome to contact the Academic Advisory Office<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
