• Legal notice https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/impressum.html

  The official legal notice confirms the name University of Hamburg, the Hamburg address, and the university's public-law corporation status.

• Bachelor's and master's degree programs https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/campuscenter/studienangebot/bachelor-master.html

  The Campus Center describes the regular bachelor's degree as a three-year program; some BA exceptions last three and a half or four years.

  The Bachelor of Arts structure includes a 90-credit major subject, a 45-credit minor subject, and a 45-credit ABK, elective, or optional area. BSc and LLB programs usually have no minor, but include ABK and an elective area.

  The page lists compulsory modules, compulsory elective modules, and freely selectable elective modules, and says the elective area can include regular courses from other subjects, deeper study of outside subjects, or a studium generale.

• Minors in bachelor of arts degree programs https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/campuscenter/studienangebot/nebenfaecher.html

  The page confirms that minors are offered only in BA programs, are chosen during the application process, and are not offered in BSc programs.

  The same page says that in a few BSc cases students can choose a supplementary subject during their studies. This supports programChoice 1 only with a scope caveat and does not prove post-enrollment choice of the main specialization.

• Cooperation with the University of Kiel https://www.uni-hamburg.de/campuscenter/studienangebot/kooperation-uni-kiel.html

  The agreement with Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel allows reciprocal attendance of individual classes and examinations to supplement or deepen a study focus.

  This source was not used to raise courseChoice to 4 because the page requires prior study-office approval for the selected course and does not state a predefined rule for counting those external courses toward the UHH degree.

• Degree programs https://www.uni-hamburg.de/en/campuscenter/studienangebot.html

  The catalog states that Universität Hamburg offers more than 170 degree programs and lets users filter by degree type, faculty, language, and program start.

  The page was used as context for fixed entry into a selected program and as a check of the BA, BSc, LLB, MEd, and Staatsexamen abbreviations.
