French can be replaced on application by another foreign language relevant to the study of History at the University of Paderborn. If the Bachelor’s thesis is written on the subject of history, knowledge of Latin must be proven. The evidence is to be provided in the form of the Latinum (Latin language examination). Proof of foreign language skills should be provided prior to enrolment (recommended). However, the required language skills must be proven to the study programme administrator by the time of registration for the advanced modules and are required for participation in the advanced modules. Knowledge of Latin has to be proven once more for the Bachelor’s thesis on the subject of History and is a prerequisite for admission to the Bachelor’s Thesis in History.
