After evaluating all registrations, the seminar seats are allocated according to the following criteria and priorities, which have been determined by the lecturers in advance:

Relevant degree program or specialization module
The seminar is assigned to your degree program or specialization module or is a compulsory course.

Number of credit points already earned

• The more credit points you have already acquired, the higher the probability (ceteris paribus) of obtaining a seminar seat.
• Core subjects or Fundamentals & Core Courses:
  You should have already successfully completed some courses from the modules Fundamentals and Core Courses.

Grades:
The better your grades in the prerequisite courses, the more likely you will be accepted into the desired seminar.

Alternative seminar preferences:
By indicating more than one desired seminar (ideally: 3 priorities), you may increase your chances of getting a seminar seat.

Further criteria:
For some seminars, the following criteria are also taken into account:

• If you have already had discussions with the lecturer and have shown an interest in taking part in the seminar, you can indicate this in the registration under remarks.
  The Dean of Studie's Office will contact the lecturer before the definitive assignment.
• Further, individual requirements according to the information in the course catalogue.

Students have to be enrolled in a master program at the University of Basel. Students in a disciplinary program offered by the Faculty of Business and Economics or an interdisciplinary master program jointly offered by this faculty with other faculties are particularly predestined for this seminar. PhDs and Postdocs will be invited sur dossier if slots are available.

Enrollment is necessary in the autumn semester (writing the paper) and the spring semester (presentation and visits to the institutions).  Past enrollment in a course at the Summer School of Law, Business and Economic Policy at the WW-Faculty of the University of Basel is an asset, but not mandatory to be accepted to the seminar.

This is an annual course for which a special application process applies.
