Admission Requirements
Bachelor’s degree
Applicants must hold a Bachelor’s (BSc) degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, Material Science, Computer Science or equivalent programmes (Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Engineering or equivalent) with at least 180 ECTS. The final grade will be translated to the German grading system using the modified Bavarian formula. The translated grade should be at least a 2.7 (in the German grading system). The BSc must have
been obtained by a nationally recognised university and be recognised by all partner institutions’ national legislation. If proof of qualification (bachelor’s degree) is not available at the time of application, students can be admitted conditionally. In this case, they need to submit an official statement from their university stating the expected graduation date and the missing courses in the application form. The final degree certificate and transcript of academic records have to be submitted until the 1st of August in the respective year to finalize the admission procedure. If the original language in the document is not English, an authorized translation has to be submitted as well.
