Máster
Informática (M.Sc.)

• Completed undergraduate degree in Computer Science or computer-related subjects with at least 180 ECTS.

• Your degree must be from a state or state-approved higher education institution/university

• You must have achieved a final grade of at least “satisfactory” or Grade C equivalent to the German grade “befriedigend” in your previous undergraduate degree

Alternatives to the minimum grade (120 ECTS credits)

If you have completed your bachelor's degree with a grade of "sufficient" or grade D equivalent to the German grade “ausreichend” (up to 4.0), you can still be admitted to a master's or MBA program. For this, you need:

• A bachelor's degree (grade 3.5 - 4.0) from a state or state-approved higher education institution/university
  and

• Relevant study achievements from a master's/MBA programme at a state or state-approved higher education institution/university relevant to the desired master's/MBA programme, with a minimum of 40 ECTS credits
  or

• Un Máster/MBA relevante y finalizado de una institución universitaria/universidad estatal o reconocida oficialmente por el Estado
  or

• Cualificaciones relevantes fuera del ámbito académico que pueden ser reconocidas, como formación continua/formación en nivel GQF7 o, en el caso de cualificaciones extranjeras como postgraduate diplomas, equivalentes al nivel GQF7 y relevantes para el programa de Máster/MBA deseado, con un minimum of 40 ECTS credits

Tip: If you apply for recognition, we can review your relevant achievements and, where possible, credit them towards your study programme in a relevant field.

Exception: To be admitted to the master's programme in Architecture (120 ECTS credits), you must have completed your undergraduate degree with a final grade of at least "good” or grade B equivalent to the German grade "good" (up to 2.5).

Is your undergraduate degree not in the required subject field for the 120 ECTS programme's admission requirements? You can still apply! You'll have to take 2 specific courses from your study programme and successfully complete them before you can start your studies.

Recognition of knowledge and abilities acquired outside of higher education is possible in principle.

The alternative admission requirements represent individual exceptions to the aforementioned General Admission Requirements and ensure that you are qualified to access a master's degree programme. Admission is granted at the discretion of the institution.

We, therefore, ask for proof of your English language skills*. If English is your native language or you graduated from an English-speaking school/university, you don’t need to prove your English skills.   

• TOEFL (minimum 80 points) or 

• IELTS (minimum Level 6) or 

• Duolingo English-Test (minimum 95 points) or 

• Cambridge Certificate (minimum Grade B)

*Proof must be provided before the start of the study and must not be older than five years.
