How to apply
What you need to apply for Biomedical Engineering at University of Lubeck
If you are not a native English speaker you must have an internationally accepted language test certificate such as the TOEFL, IELTS or Cambridge Certificate. A score of at least 80 points (internet based TOEFL) or 550 points (paper based TOEFL) or a comparable result in another international test is required.
If you are unable to complete these English proficiency exams the following exceptions may apply:
a. English was the primary language of instruction for your school education
b. At least six months of working or studying in an English speaking country
c. English was the official language of your previous Bachelor or Master studies
You must support these exceptions with adequate and officially certified documents.
It is to your advantage to be able to speak German. Because all lectures and exams take place in English, you can attend the Master Program without any German knowledge. Many people in Germany speak English, however it is always good to have a basic knowledge of the language spoken in the country in which you are living. We advise students to learn German because it is necessary for cultural integration in your everyday life in Lübeck and also for your job search.

2\. Additionally, applicants with a master degree in a comparable field may also apply for a position in this program. Students’ eligibility is evaluated by a committee who look at application grades and length of study as well as the relevant technical degree. Since all bachelor degrees are not equivalent worldwide, the decision to admit applicants will be made on a case-by-case basis.
PLEASE NOTE: Applicants who hold a degree in medical sciences (MD) or a degree in business sciences (economics) without a second technical degree do not fulfill the requirements to apply to this master's program.
3\. Students must have a bachelor's or diploma degree with a grade of 2.5 or better (German grading system).

Step 1
Fill in the application form 1 and form 2 and send them via e-mail to silke.venker(at)fh-luebeck.de for a first check before you begin the official application. Do not send any scanned copies along with this online pre-application.
If you have problems opening the file or questions about filling in the application form, please contact us for help.
Application form 1: Personal Information
Application form 2: For admission at University
Step 2
In reply you will get an email stating whether or not you fulfill the general requirements. This email does not state anything about admission. Upon receiving the email stating general fulfillment of requirements, you may send all paperwork to uni-assist - a federal organisation which evaluates international degrees and transforms the grades to the German grading system.
Step 3
After receiving the verification, please print out application forms 1 and 2 with your personal data (a black and white printout is adequate). Please verify that you have signed the last pages of both forms - all unsigned application forms will be rejected. Please make sure that you always write your first name and your surname in the same way it is written in your passport!
In case you have to send your documents to uni-assist please be aware of paying the fee of 75 Euro!
After receiving your application the organisation "uni-assist" will send you, by conventional post or by email, the acknowledgement of receipt (We are not responsible for postal delivery delays!). They will inform you, if something is missing and you still have time to submit it later. Only after this step is completed, will your application be considered in the official selection procedure.
We will make our final decision based on the evaluation done by uni-assist. We will inform all students in May/June, if they are offered a place in the program or not. That leaves you enough time to apply for the visa, which might in some cases take up to three months.
