6 findings

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions channels and check the website for entry requirements, document lists, deadlines, and any programme-specific conditions. The university does not provide further admissions detail in the available information, so confirm the current process directly on the official site before submitting an application.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a tuition fee range for international students in the available information; confirm the current cost with its admissions office. Budget separately for living costs in Germany, including housing, food, transport, and insurance.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is not given, so check the official website before applying if you need English-taught study or German-language entry. Also confirm visa requirements, proof of funds, document translation needs, and whether your previous qualifications meet the entry standard for the programme you want.

  6. How it compares

    Germany has 326 universities, so this institution sits in a large and competitive national system. Its published offer is narrower than many universities, with 13 bachelor’s programmes, so it is best for applicants who want a focused choice rather than a wide catalogue.

Written from this university's catalogue entry and its cited encyclopedia summary. Figures are only shown where the institution or a cited source publishes them — always confirm fees and entry requirements with the university itself before applying.
