Dear Applicant

Thank you for your interest in our international Master courses at the University of Rostock. Please read this guide carefully as it will probably answer many questions.

Selection for Master courses will be made by a committee on the basis of the application documents. The Master course either starts in the winter semester (October 1st which we recommend) or in the summer semester (April 1st).

   

Admission requirements

  1. Applicants whose native language is not English have to prove English language skills (proof not older than two years) with TOEFL IBT with at least 90 points or IELTS with at least 6.5 points.
       
  2. Applicants have to prove a first university degree qualifying for a profession in the subject of Electrical Engineering with a minimum of 180 credit points or a different but equal degree.

Alternatively, the applicant is able to prove any other qualifications relevant for this master program that may lead to the prospect of a successful graduation based on overall academic progress.

Students who choose the specialization Power Engineering are recommended to commence their studies in the winter semester otherwise they have limited options to attend classes.
