Pre-course in mathematics

Every year in March - usually one week before the start of the semester - we offer a math course to prepare students for their studies. It is not compulsory, can be attended without registration and free of charge. The content is specifically tailored to the Master's program. The goal is to repeat the most important mathematical knowledge from the bachelor's program in business mathematics at HTW Berlin. The topics are:

  • Analysis
  • Linear Algebra
  • Probability theory
  • Statistics
  • Programming skills in R

If you have a background in economics, you should definitely attend this course. Because practice shows that there are often gaps in the topics mentioned, which can cause difficulties especially at the beginning of the studies.
