All applicants who did not obtain their qualification for postgraduate studies (usually a Bachelor’s degree) at a German university have to hand in a so called VPD: Vorprüfungsdokumentation (VPD) of uni-assist

Additional documents, which only have to be handed in by applicants with a B.Sc. degree from certain countries:

Iran, Pakistan, Bangladesh:

Graduate Record Examination (GRE)

Vietnam:

Akademische Prüfstelle Certificate (APS)

China, India:

Graduate Record Examination (GRE)

Akademische Prüfstelle Certificate (APS)

In order for your application to be considered, all required documents must be submitted by the application deadline. Documents relevant for the application process cannot be submitted later. Please note, provisional documents (for example, provisional graduation certificates) cannot be considered.

The only exception is the VPD certificate from the University Application Service for International Students (uni-assist), which can be submitted after the application deadline has expired, provided that your application includes a declaration that you have applied to uni-assist for an examination of your documents.

An industrial internship is not mandatory in this degree program and is not an admission requirement. Depending on your academic progress, however, it might be beneficial to gain practical experience outside the university.
