✅ Entry Requirements
Academic qualification
| Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Bachelor's degree (foreign qualification) | International applicants need an eligible prior bachelor's degree (or an equivalent qualification) from a state or state-recognised higher education institution outside Germany, and the qualification must meet the credits/entry pathway described by Euro-FH for Master admission. |
| Credit-based access pathway and recognition | Euro-FH describes credit-based entry pathways for Master admission (e.g., defined minimum credits from the first degree) and evaluates eligibility based on the applicant's completed higher-education credits and supporting documents submitted with the application. |
| Relevant study background and evaluation | Euro-FH uses qualification assessment from the application documents (including study records) to determine whether the prior degree is sufficiently related for the selected Master programme. |
Module matching by study area
| Study area | Match possible? | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| Engineering & Technology | Direct match | Euro-FH evaluates the relevance of the applicant's prior technical/information-science background via the submitted application documents. |
Language requirements
Euro-FH expects international applicants to have sufficient English proficiency to read, understand, and write academic texts in English. For relevant Master admission decisions, Euro-FH states an English level requirement on CEFR level B2, and also indicates that the program language is English for its English-taught Master programmes.

📝 How to Apply
Prepare your qualification documents (international applicants)
Collect your prior degree certificate(s) and transcripts from your home country education institution. Ensure your documents show your credits and grading details clearly, as Euro-FH uses the submitted materials to assess eligibility for international applicants. If your English evidence is not a standard test, prepare the official confirmation/letter that supports your English proficiency claims.
Submit the online application and required uploads
Apply via Euro-FH's official application process for the selected Master programme and upload the required supporting documents. Complete all form fields accurately and include the English proficiency evidence required for admission assessment. Make sure the files you upload match the documentation requested by Euro-FH for international applicants.
Credential review and admissions decision
After you submit your application, Euro-FH reviews your qualification documents to determine admission eligibility for the programme. If your prior study background is not fully aligned, Euro-FH may review your complete application (including any motivation and supporting evidence) as part of the decision process. Respond promptly if the admissions team requests any additional clarifications or documents.
