Language proficiency:

For German-taught programmes: German language skills are required (often DSH-2 or equivalent). 

For English-taught or international master’s programmes: proof of English language competence is required (e.g., IELTS, TOEFL) depending on the programme. 

Application deadlines: For many international/non-EU applicants: winter semester applications ~ 1 April to 15 July, or summer semester ~ 1 October to 15 January (varies by programme) via uni-assist. 

Additional documents may include CV/resume, transcript of records, module handbooks where subject match must be verified, and in some cases, motivation letters or selection interviews.
