Teaching Timetables for Autumn Semester 2024:

In Autumn Semester 2024 there will be two separate study groups, 24YIBMA & 24YIBMB. The Head of Programme will communicated to all accepted students to which study group you belong to and how to search and use the TAMK Timetable Engine. If you accept your study place after 13 June, and you want to know which study group you belong to, please contact the Head of Programme.

 

Curriculum and Credit Transfer for Prior Master's Studies

Take a closer look at your curriculum to better understand your study and learning goals. The individual descriptions of courses include methods, teachers, timing of the course within the academic year, evaluation criteria and exam types.

This information is especially important if you wish to transfer credits for some previously completed Master-level courses, since you need to propose the substitution and discuss the matter with your study counsellor (see contact information below). If you have questions about credit transfer, it’s best to book a meeting time or to send email ahead of time to avoid the rush during the Orientation Days.
