Depending on your original university entrance qualification and your degree, the Application and Admissions Office (Sachgebiet Bewerbung und Zulassung Master) or the International Admissions Office is responsible. If you have acquired your degree at a foreign university or will acquire it by the beginning of the application semester, the International Admissions Office is responsible for the recognition and equivalence check of your foreign degree.

The decision on the subject-related admission to the Master's program is made by the examination board of the responsible department. Please submit your application with the relevant certificates of achievement from your Bachelor's program to the Application and Admissions Office (Sachgebiet Bewerbung und Zulassung) or the International Admissions Office as early as possible.

At the time of application/application, the Bachelor's degree does not yet have to be available. Proof of successful completion of the Bachelor's degree must be submitted by 15.01. of the following year at the latest for a winter semester and by 01.07. at the latest for a summer semester.

An officially certified copy of your degree certificate must be submitted as proof. An informal certificate of completed studies is not sufficient! An extension of the above mentioned deadline is not possible. If you are unable to provide proof of your Bachelor's degree by the above deadlines, you will be de-registered from the Master's program.

Some degree programmes have special enrollment requirements. You will find further information for your desired course of studies in the overview of academic programmes and in the online application in the subject-specific notes.

The recognition of modules or examinations in the Master's program from a previous program that entitles the student to a Master's degree is excluded; this also applies to modules or examinations from another professional degree that entitles the student to a Master's degree.
