It is to your advantage to be able to speak German. Because all lectures and exams take place in English, you can attend the Master Program without any German knowledge. Many people in Germany speak English, however it is always good to have a basic knowledge of the language spoken in the country in which you are living. We advise students to learn German because it is necessary for cultural integration in your everyday life in Lübeck and also for your job search.

How to apply

Step-by-step guide to applying for Biomedical Engineering at University of Lubeck

Application procedure

Step 1

Fill in the application form 1 and form 2 and send them via e-mail to silke.venker(at)fh-luebeck.de for a first check before you begin the official application. Do not send any scanned copies along with this online pre-application.

If you have problems opening the file or questions about filling in the application form, please contact us for help.

Application form 1: Personal Information

Application form 2: For admission at University

Step 2

In reply you will get an email stating whether or not you fulfill the general requirements. This email does not state anything about admission. Upon receiving the email stating general fulfillment of requirements, you may send all paperwork to uni-assist - a federal organisation which evaluates international degrees and transforms the grades to the German grading system.

Step 3

After receiving the verification, please print out application forms 1 and 2 with your personal data (a black and white printout is adequate). Please verify that you have signed the last pages of both forms - all unsigned application forms will be rejected. Please make sure that you always write your first name and your surname in the same way it is written in your passport!

In case you have to send your documents to uni-assist please be aware of paying the fee of 75 Euro!

Selection process

After receiving your application the organisation "uni-assist" will send you, by conventional post or by email, the acknowledgement of receipt (We are not responsible for postal delivery delays!). They will inform you, if something is missing and you still have time to submit it later. Only after this step is completed, will your application be considered in the official selection procedure.

We will make our final decision based on the evaluation done by uni-assist. We will inform all students in May/June, if they are offered a place in the program or not. That leaves you enough time to apply for the visa, which might in some cases take up to three months.
