• minimum grade 2,5 according to the German grading system

-

Special regulations for applicants with less than 210 ECTS

Applicants with less than 210 credits (ECTS) can be accepted, but must make up the missing credits through a post-qualification:

• either through an internship (at least 900 hours / 6 months) (only possible if the internship was not yet recognised as a compulsory internship in the Bachelor's degree) or
• attending appropriate modules at Hof University.
• It is possible to combine the recognition of a shorter internship with the attendance of modules at the university.

For both alternatives, please calculate an additional (fourth) semester.

Language requirements

• Proof of English language proficiency by either of the following options:
• TOEFL minimum 90
• IELTS 6.5 or above
• Proof of basic German language skills for applicants from abroad (Certificate for minimum level A1 according to the Common European Framework for Languages (CEFR))

The application process consists of two steps:

Step 1:

You provide insightful information about your career to date and about your previous skills and projects. This can be done either with

• a digital portfolio with self-created design work samples that provide information about your artistic talent and suitability, or
• the documentation of a design/development project that was successfully carried out in practice either by yourself or largely as part of a team, or
• a self-written scientific paper in German or English.

Step 2:  Digital aptitude test  with a practical part and a detailed interview in English
