Admission to the Master’s degree programme requires a degree equivalent to a German Bachelor's degree in

• an engineering discipline or a related subject area

or

• an equivalent qualification obtained in Germany or abroad

You must submit the following documents with your application:

• Certificate from your first/undergraduate degree
  Not sure if your degree is equivalent to a German bachelor's degree? Get more information through uni-assist.
   
• If applicable, a diploma supplement or transcript of records as proof that you have achieved the required number of ECTS credits during your first/undergraduate degree.
  You do not have to provide this document if the ECTS credits are shown on the degree certificate. Applicants who studied for their first/undergraduate degree at Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences do not need to submit this document. You may need to submit a German or English translation produced by an officially appointed translator.
• If applicable, evidence of the grading system for your first/undergraduate degree
  including details of the highest and lowest possible pass grades (if this is different to the German grading system)

• Completed degree in English studies in Germany or abroad
• International university entrance qualification that certifies English as the language of instruction.
• Passing “Technical English”, “Business English” or a comparable English module worth at least 4 ECTS credits from the previous German-language degree.

Proof of language proficiency must be provided before the start of the programme.

• Information for war refugees: 

War refugees who have a residence permit in accordance with Section 24 of the Residence Act (Act on the Residence, Economic Activity and Integration of Foreigners in the Federal Territory) can also submit a DAAD language certificate (English B2) from TH Rosenheim’s Language Centre as evidence of sufficient English language skills. If you do not have proof of language proficiency at the time of application, you can submit it later, by the end of the second semester, provided you have proven your refugee status via uni-assist within the specified time limit. 

The following apply as proof of required German language skills for language level C1:

• German-language university entrance qualification
• Certificate of an assessment test to determine the eligibility of foreign applicants to study at institutions of higher education in the Federal Republic of Germany (= Feststellungsprüfung)

Proof of language proficiency must be provided before the start of the programme.

• You will be invited to the aptitude test if you fulfil the other admission requirements.
• The test lasts 120 minutes. It tests your particular aptitude in approaching engineering issues and in systematic problem solving.
• This written test takes place once every semester. The date of the test is announced at least two weeks in advance by written invitation. The aptitude test tests basic engineering competences that are typically acquired in an engineering degree course. For example, the aptitude test contains tasks on
  • Fundamentals of electrical engineering
  • Drive technology
  • Construction/design
  • Physics (including fluid mechanics, thermodynamics)
  • Materials engineering
  • Mathematics
  • Technical mechanics
  • Measurement and control engineering
  • Computer science
• The result of the entrance test is the assessment ‘suitable’ or ‘not suitable’ for the respective applicant. In the case of an assessment as ‘suitable’, the applicant is free to enrol in the degree programme if the other requirements according to the applicable study and examination regulations are met.
• The examination result ‘suitable’ does not oblige the candidate to enrol on the degree programme immediately. Rather, the successful examination candidate can also apply for the degree programme at a later date, as long as Rosenheim University of Applied Sciences offers this degree programme at all. Such a later application should be accompanied by a reference to an earlier successful passing of the aptitude test.

• In case you are currently studying at a German university and haven't completed your first degree yet, Student Administration will send you temporary guest access for all online services at Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences. Please get in touch with Student Administration once your overall examination result has been announced to find out about enrolment. Enrolment will need to be denied if the first degree has not been completed by the date of the first examination in the Master’s degree. Completed means that the final overall examination result must have been submitted!
• What do you do if you have a first degree with at least 180 but less than 210 credit points?
  In order to pass the Master’s examination, proof must be provided of the missing credits, or they must be caught up from the range of relevant courses at Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences. The Examination Committee shall determine which study achievements and examinations need to be taken additionally in the degree programme. In some cases, relevant vocational or professional work periods may be credited to the missing ECTS credits. Proof of a total of 300 ECTS credits (inclusive first course of studies) is therefore required to successfully obtain your degree qualification. Applicants with fewer than 180 ECTS credits from their first degree cannot be admitted to the Masters’ degree programme.
