Civil Engineering (M.Sc.)

The prerequisite for admission to the Master's degree programme in Civil Engineering is a qualified degree (Bachelor's or Diplomingenieur degree) from a civil engineering degree programme lasting at least 7 semesters (210 credit points for a Bachelor's degree) at a state or state-recognised university with:

• an overall grade of 2.5 (up to 2.59) or better
• ECTS grade B or better or
• an overall grade of 2.6 to 2.9, if a meaningful assessment of suitability for the Master's degree programme in Civil Engineering is submitted. The assessment must have been prepared by a university lecturer who taught the applicant in the first professionally qualifying degree programme. The examination board decides on the recognition of the assessment and admission to the degree programme.

Graduates of a Bachelor's degree programme amounting to 180 credit points may be admitted to the Master's degree programme in accordance with Section 4 of the degree programme examination regulations, subject to the condition that they complete additional credits, usually amounting to 30 credit points, by the time they register for the Master's thesis.

The 30 credit points can be earned in the following modules:

• Elective modules from the 3rd year of the Bachelor's degree programme in Civil Engineering or
• 15 credit points from the "Practical phase" module from the 7th semester and 15 credit points from elective modules from the 3rd year of the Bachelor's degree programme in Civil Engineering.
• Upon application to the examination board, also from elective modules from comparable degree programmes
