The Master in Mathematics at the FU Berlin is basically in English.
You have to complete 120 Credit Points.
- You get 30 of those CP from your Master thesis
- The remaining 90 CP you have to fill with:
- 50 CP Basismodules, 10 CP each

Also you should know about the Berlin Mathematical School (BMS), even if you are no Member of it. The BMS is a Graduiertencollege where students can start directly with their doctorate degree, after their bachelor. To do this they visit courses from all 3 Berlin Universities (FU, TU, HU). This has the nice side effects that all 3 Universities in Berlin strongly cooperate in Mathematics, you therefor have a broad spectrum of higher Math classes to choose from and the process of getting such courses approved is more or less standardized.
You can check out the BMS here: http://www.math-berlin.de/index.php

We also invite you to join us at the monthly Masters Stammtisch together with the TU-Berlin. For more information check out this Website: http://www.tu-berlin.de/?82363
