Will I get in
The programme has an admission restriction: the average grade of your certificate, converted to the German scale, decides. The cut-off changes every year — last year's value shows the order of magnitude, not a promise.
How the selection works and how strong the competition is — we go through it against your certificate when we select programmes for you.
Programme selection →What you study
The following goal-module matrix establishes a relationship between the higher-level learning outcomes and the modules to be assigned to them in the course. Compulsory elective modules are subject to relatively dynamic changes in the bachelor's degree programs. In the period of validity of an accreditation, various new elective modules can therefore be added or established modules can be dropped, which is why the elective courses have only been included as "elective courses". The Faculty of Industrial Engineering has developed the higher-level learning results for the WI course in accordance with the requirements of the "Qualifications Framework for Industrial Engineering" 3rd edition, April 2019, which is published by the Faculty and Departmental Day Industrial Engineering e.V. This is based on the HQR and differentiates between

The professional prospects of industrial engineers, who are preferably employed at the interfaces of technical and economic problem areas, are classified as good in the long term by experts.
As "doubly talented" our graduates are therefore often found in project management, in technical purchasing or sales, in product management and in controlling - wherever technical and business issues come together. Industrial engineers are open to all industries as all-rounders.

The procedure and the set of documents depend on your certificate. We check the university's requirements against your documents and give you a list: what to submit, how to certify and translate it, where and when to apply.
Check the requirementsHow to get into this programme
- 1Check your certificate and its recognitionDirect admission, a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — this decides the whole plan.
- 2German up to C1 and a certificateDSH or TestDaF has to be passed before you apply.
- 3Documents and translationsCertified translations of the certificate and transcript, an APS if required. 3–4 weeks.
- 4Application uni-assist (VPD) + the university until 15.01uni-assist checks documents for 4–6 weeks — send them well before the deadline.
- 5Admission, visa, movingPlan 2–3 months for the visa and the blocked account in parallel.
How to apply
You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
Applications go through the university's portal or uni-assist. Typical mistakes:
- ×incorrectly made certified copies and translations
- ×a wrong set of documents
- ×the application submitted the wrong way
- ×errors or gaps in the application form
- ×the application submitted at the wrong time — too early or too late
An incomplete or incorrectly prepared application is excluded from the selection — it can no longer be corrected after the deadline.
StudyInFocus does not represent the university and does not influence the admission decision. We do not sell study places and do not guarantee admission — this is a service for preparing and submitting documents on the applicant's side.
If your level is not enough yet
The two most common stoppers are a language level below the requirement and a certificate without direct admission. Both can be solved, but they take months — plan them now, not after a rejection.
