Documents you must submit with your application

A chronological curriculum vitae.

A certified copy of your relevant first degree certificate and transcripts of your results, showing a final grade of 2.7 or better according to the German grading scale (foreign grades will be converted after we receive your application). Alternatively, you can present a confirmation from your university's examinations office showing that your results were ranked among the best 70% of your cohort.

Your certificate and transcript must demonstrate that your undergraduate degree had a computer science and/or mathematics component of at least 120 ECTS credits.

The computer science component must amount to at least 40 ECTS credits

The mathematics component (which may include modules in theoretical computer science) must amount to at least 35 ECTS credits

If you completed a four-year non-ECTS degree, the 120 ECTS credit requirement is deemed to be met if two-thirds of your credit points were earned in computer science/mathematics-related modules/courses

If you attained your undergraduate degree outside Germany, you must submit evidence that your degree included at least 10 ECTS credits for a project that involved independent study using scientific methods, set deadlines, and a requirement to present written findings at the end. To do this, you should submit an English or German-language abstract/summary of your undergraduate dissertation/bachelor's thesis/final year project or an academic research paper or publication that demonstrates your ability to solve a scientific research problem independently. It is highly recommended that you include a hyperlink to an electronic version of the entire text of your original-language work.

You may be required to submit additional documents depending on the country where you have acquired your academic qualifications. Please see uni-assist's country-specific information page for details.

A copy of the identity page of your passport. EU citizens may send a copy of their national identity card instead. Please black out sensitive information, such as the passport number, but make sure your name, nationality and date of birth are clearly legible.

Application during the final semester of your undergraduate degree

If, at the time of your application, you cannot provide your degree certificate due to still being enrolled in the final semester of your undergraduate degree programme, you must submit the transcript of records thus far available. If admitted to the programme, you must then complete all modules and submit all work for your undergraduate degree before the start of teaching on the Master's programme.

You must include the following language certificates with your application

If neither your native language nor your language of schooling was English, you must provide proof of English language skills equivalent to level B2 CEFR.

If neither your native language nor your language of schooling was German, you will have to provide proof of German language skills equivalent to level A1 CEFR by the end of the first year of study in Passau.

Certified copies

Please submit certified copies of your certificates - never originals! Documents you send in with your application are not returned to you.
