Prerequisites

The prerequisite for admission to the Master's degree program in Mechanical Engineering is a qualified degree (Bachelor's or Diplomingenieur degree) with an overall grade of 2.5 (up to 2.59) or better from a degree program in Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics or Electrical Engineering (210 credit points) lasting at least 7 semesters or a comparable degree program at a state or state-recognized university. The examination board determines the comparability of the subject.

If you have completed a degree with fewer than 210 ECTS credits, you will have to provide so-called "Equalization Services" when you start the Master's program.
