Admission is possible also with a bachelor’s degree in related fields in life and natural sciences – for example, dealing with societal aspects of technological transformation, climate change, and public/global health – if a convincing explanation of a strong motivation for this special study programme can be given.
• Knowledge of English at B2 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (C1 level being recommended)
• Aptitute Test: The fulfilment of the critera listed will be checked by the faculty and the mobility partners within the consortium. The decision subsequently issued by the faculty serves as proof of the corresponding admission requirements.

Award of a joint degree with the partner universities Granada, Graz and Vilnius

Physical mobility is greatly encouraged but is not compulsory in this programme. It may take place from the second semester onwards. Preference is given to candidates who choose a physical mobility track within their application. Applicants can indicate a preference for the study places in the application. However, the selection committee makes the final decision on the mobility track with respect to the applicant’s preference, qualifications and specialization. Once students have enrolled in the programme, their mobility track becomes part of the study agreement and can only be changed from both sides in the case that substantial changes are necessary due to extraordinary circumstances.
