In the "International Energy Engineering " Master's degree programme, you will learn the engineering contexts and concepts of resource-saving energy generation, energy conversion, energy management, storage and distribution in an international environment. This will give you expert knowledge in all areas of environmentally friendly energy topics.
- How it is organised
- OTH is a University of Applied Science, which means that in all study courses, practical applications are a focus. The "International Energy Engineering" Master's programme includes a lot of practical work and projects either in the university labs or within ongoing research projects.
- Part-time work
- Several internationally operating companies are located in Amberg, which regularly offer internships and working student activities. The curriculum also gives students the opportunity to work part-time.
- Support for international students
- Please visit the Welcome Centre on campus to find out about all other general services for international students or contact the study programme coordinator within your department.
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.
