The start of studies is possible at any time via the online portal of TU Dortmund University.

 

When considering admission (application), it is essential to include the following complete documents/details with the application:

  • Transcript of Records (complete overview of subjects with details of associated credits, total number of credits)
  • Course of study overview
  • Indication of the standard period of study for your degree program
  • Bachelor's degree certificate (by the time of enrollment at the latest)

The examination board of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering reviews the application. Admission may (in the case of courses that deviate from the Dortmund Bachelor's program with 210 credits) be subject to the condition by the examination board that certain additional course or examination achievements that are requirements for successful study in the Master's program must still be completed. The conditions must be proven by the time of registration for the Master's thesis.

After receiving the admission letter, the enrollment can be done via the Student Secretary's Office.

 

A variety of documents are required for enrollment. You can find a detailed list here!

Prospective students who have obtained their academic degree abroad should contact the  International Office of the TU Dortmund University directly.

The website of the International Office also provides information on language requirements, and our colleagues will also be happy to answer any questions you may have in person.
