Admission requirements

In order to enroll directly in the course, you will need a general university entrance qualification, a subject-specific university entrance qualification, or a university of applied sciences entrance qualification. If you do not have the Abitur or Fachabitur, recognized advanced training and technical school qualifications (e.g. technician, master craftsman, business administrator, specialist business administrator, educator) in combination with a consultation qualify you for the course. If you do not have advanced training or technical school qualifications but have completed vocational training and work experience, you can start the course after successfully passing the university aptitude test. From foreign students, we require proof of German language skills such as DSH-2, C1 according to the GER, TestDaF level 4, or a school-leaving certificate equivalent to a German university entrance qualification.

Recommended skills are English at ALTE3 or B2 level according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (GER), mathematics knowledge at the level of university entrance qualification, and basic PC user skills.
