What the faculty's programmes require

The university-wide requirements are complemented by the faculty's own — they are missed most often, because the university page does not list them.

German C1 before applying

For 2 German-taught programmes: DSH, TestDaF or telc C1 Hochschule — before you apply, not after.

English B2

For 4 English-taught programmes; the accepted tests (IELTS, TOEFL) are on the programme page.

For a master's — a related bachelor's

The committee checks your ECTS credits in the subject areas (listed for 1 master's programme).

About the faculty

Electrical and computer engineering always requires the interdisciplinary approach and the interaction of modeling, implementation and data processing, whether it is the investigation of individual effects or automated design and the creation of complex technical systems. An essential feature of the tasks in electrical and computer engineering is the scalability of solutions and systems, as well as in highly integrated circuits and in other complex, networked infrastructures. The necessary range of methods in electrical and computer engineering and its further development, itself a subject of engineering science, is thus characterized highly interdisciplinary and includes numerous fields of applied mathematics, computer science and physics.

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Technical University of Munich - one of the largest and leading engineering departments in Germany - is committed to this self-understanding and is characterized by a close linkage of a strongly basic as well as application-oriented teaching and research.
