Are all STA modules offered regularly?

All the required modules are offered every year. Electives may or may not be offered regularly. An indication is the offered frequency of recent years.

The module title reads "STA110 Introduction to Statistics". What is "introductory" in this lecture?

The title refers to the sequence of statistics modules of the minor program. It is the first stats lecture and thus the "introduction". Of course we need to go beyond what we expect as prerequisites. Quite often, the elements of the lecture that students struggle most with have been discussed in MAT182 Stochastics for Natural Sciences.

MAT141 is required in my major program. Can I count it towards my minor program as well?

No. Each module can only be counted towards one study program. Students completing MAT141 as a required module of their major program need to replace it in the minor program by an additional elective module worth at least 5 ECTS.

I have a schedule conflict with one of the required modules. Do I have to be physically present during the lecture and exercises?

In most modules, you do not need to be there physically. We expect that you collect the information of the module yourself. Some modules offer recordings from previous years (e.g. STA120, STA121).

I cannot attend the classes of module STA472. Is it possible to enroll nevertheless?

No, due to the flipped classroom style and the structure of the content, we expect regular presence in class.

Is it possible to accredit required modules from different universities?

No, required modules have to be taken at UZH.

Is it possible to take elective modules during a study abroad?

Generally, yes. The specific modules have to be discussed with the study coordination and appropriately recorded in a learning agreement. Required modules are to be completed at UZH.

Can I book single modules of the minor program?

Yes, as long as the prerequisites are fulfilled.
