Trial Studies
The trial program offers interested high school students the chance to gain insight into a mathematics degree program and to “really study” for a week. Through authentic courses tailored to your needs, you’ll get a taste of everyday student life and discover that university-level mathematics is much more than just doing calculations! The only real requirement is an interest in mathematics—the topics are deliberately chosen so that little prior knowledge is necessary.
This course is ideal if you're interested in math but aren't quite sure yet what to expect in college.
The trial semester usually takes place during the last week of summer vacation.
Unitag
The “Unitag,” sponsored by the Bavarian State Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs, is designed as a “Studium Generale”: Every Friday during the semester—with the exception of school breaks—30 high school students from all over Upper Bavaria attend courses at LMU Munich that have been specially curated and designed for them, covering various academic disciplines—ranging from the natural sciences to the humanities and medicine.
Early Studies
The Early Admission Program at LMU gives exceptionally gifted high school students the opportunity to take regular university courses while still in high school—in a subject that particularly interests them and in which they wish to pursue in-depth academic study.
You will study alongside regularly enrolled students, typically in in-person classes. Unlike, for example, a trial study program or a “University Day,” the early study program is not a separate program for a group of high school students, but rather individual participation in the regular curriculum—usually in a single course—for the entire duration of a semester.
