Is it possible to start the minor program before completing all the necessary requirements?

No.

I completed AOEC04 Mathematik I, AOEC09 Mathematik II and AOEC10 Statistik. Are the prerequisites for the minor program fulfilled?

Yes, a completed assessment at the faculty of business, economics and informatics is sufficient to enter the minor program.

I have successfully passed MAT183, BIO134 and BIO144, do I still have to take STA120?

The module STA120 is going deeper and discusses basic statistical topics in a more rigorous way. Evaluations have shown that you will not be annoyed with the content.

Is it required to know the programming language R prior to starting the minor program?

No, but then we really recommend to start by taking STA120 before taking any further statistics modules, since it provides a smoother intro to R.

Are students prohibited from studying mathematics allowed to enroll in the minor program?

Yes.
