After a two-semester programme at the university, the students will attend a six-month internship in industry, which is followed by another six-month Master's thesis that also will be conducted in industry. This set-up ensures a smooth transition into a professional career either in a German company or worldwide. The programme has been designed to offer various chances to apply what has been learned in the lectures during laboratories.
- How it is organised
- The course consists of two semesters with lectures/labs and German classes as well as two semesters in industry (industrial project and Master's thesis).
- Internships
- With a strong emphasis on practical laboratory work, we ensure that you gain solid experience to start a successful career in a highly qualified job in the high-tech engineering industry in Germany or abroad.
- Part-time work
- Jobs (as a "Werkstudent") are available in various companies in the Rhine-Main region, although availability depends on prior experience and accomplishments.
- Degree
- Joint or double degree with a partner university.
- Support for international students

From your country
General requirements for master's applicants. Rules change — confirm with the university and your local German mission.
🇮🇳 Applying from India
- An APS India certificate is mandatory before your visa appointment — processing takes weeks, so start it the day you decide to apply.
- Budget for the blocked account (€11,904 for one year in 2026 — verify the current amount with the German Embassy).
- IELTS/TOEFL is typically required; some universities accept a Medium-of-Instruction letter — check the official program page.
🇳🇬 Applying from Nigeria
- Proof of funds is usually a blocked account; open it early — transfers and verification take time.
- WAEC/NECO results are assessed via uni-assist for most universities; a Studienkolleg year may be required for bachelor's entry.
- Visa appointment slots in Lagos and Abuja book out months ahead — book as soon as you have an admission letter.
🇻🇳 Applying from Vietnam
- APS Vietnam certification applies to Vietnamese applicants — schedule the document check before university deadlines.
- Most universities want IELTS 6.0–6.5 for English-taught programs; requirements vary by program.
- Plan finances around the blocked account plus health insurance — both are checked at the visa stage.
🇧🇩 Applying from Bangladesh
- Document verification is strict: keep certificates, transcripts, and bank papers consistent and genuine — discrepancies sink applications.
- The blocked account is the standard proof of funds. You do not need an admission letter to open one, so set it up alongside your applications.
- Apply to several programs in parallel — visa processing in Dhaka can be slow, and an early admission letter buys you time.
