BEFORE YOU APPLY
What you need to bring.
- Teaching language
- English-taught academic route. The profile lists no minimum German certificate at entry.
- English certificates & exemptions
- English C1; IELTS Academic 7; TOEFL iBT (pre-2026 scale) 95; PTE Academic 76. Check individual component scores, test validity and exemption rules in the source; this is not the complete certificate list.
- Academic requirements
- Relevant computing, mathematics, physics or engineering degree, with the profile stating a minimum 75% result. Submit CV, study-purpose statement, transcripts, two references, English evidence and GRE/GATE. Verify grading equivalence and current test rules directly.
- Admission planning group
- More demanding requirements
- Why this group?
- Multiple substantive preparation and/or selective assessment conditions are described in the reviewed requirements. This is an editorial planning category, not an acceptance-rate estimate.
Planning groups describe the published entry and selection requirements. They are not acceptance rates, university rankings, or a prediction of admission. Open admission still requires a recognised qualification and all stated conditions.
