Unfortunately NO. The program is not very large, we need to restrict the intake of students
per semester to a number compatible with our ressources.
In the course of the admission process we check the following minimum requirements:
- courses taken in the bachelor's program
- your motivation and ambitions as stated in your letter of motivation
- frequently we invite our applicants to an interview in WebEx, to get to know them. Of course the
impression from the interview is quite important too.
That depends on the number of applicants of course, but we do try to make sure, that all applicants
receive notification of the acceptance or rejection one month after the end of the application period,
i.e. by mid February for the summer semester or mid August for the winter semester.
Minimum admission requirements all study applicants must fulfill are:
- a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, electrical and computer engineering
electronics or a closely related field - a final grade betther than the equivalent of 2.4 in German grades
- evidence of proficiency in the English language:
- a test certificate at C1-level in the CEFR, i.e. IELTS 7.0 or TOEFL iBT 94 (or better)
- a certificate from the university, that the language of instruction was English - evidence of professional experience of one year after graduation
The UniAssist applicants portal will detail this precisely. Please be prepared to upload:
- your diploma
- your transcript of records
- evidence of your language proficiency in the English language (e.g. an IELTS test certificate)
- a letter of motivation
- evidence of the professional experience (e.g. employer's reference).
If you arrive a couple of days late it is not that problematic. You can still join most courses and introductory events are sometimes offered in a hybrid form. But as the labs of most courses start in the semester's third week, we need you to arrive till then. If you can't make it till then, you'll have to apply again for the next semester.
This study program is English-taught. The language of lectures and course is English. Examinations are also given in English.
However, for students wo would prefer to take an exam in German language, we can make this possible on request.
The university offers a number of stipends, e.g. Deutschland-Stipendium or STIBET for international students. Other sources are to be found on the unversityi's website under Scholarship programs.
There are two kinds of fees, that you will have to take into consideration:
- Studentenwerk Halle provides a cafeteria and the dormitories. For this service students have to
- pay a contribution of approximately 85 Euros per semester, even if they don't live in the dormitory.
- administrative support for international students is being financed by a fee; the concrete amount
is currently under discussion, presumably it will be between 250 and 500 Euros per semester.
Please note: These fees can change.
Again: In principle, yes. But you also have to know: There is a strong fluctuation and job offers can not be guaranteed.
In principle, yes. The demand for capable students to assist in different projects or courses is great. We can however not guarantee jobs for all our students. Demand depends on whether we have sufficient research grants or not.
This master's program is to be studied in full-time and runs over three semesters with the last semester being filled out mostly by working on your Master's thesis. The program allows you to choose one major field of studies out of three options, these are:
- Automation Engineering,
- Communication Engineering and
- Embedded Systems Engineering.
For futher information please have a closer look at the Study MET website.
You can specialize in the following fields:
