Yes. You upload the transcripts you have and note that your degree is not complete. If admitted, you are admitted conditionally until you submit your final transcript and degree certificate.

KLU's general FAQ asks for a business or economics degree, but considers fields such as industrial or mechanical engineering, business informatics and mathematics if your Bachelor's includes at least four business courses. Check each programme page too, because requirements can differ. Work experience is not required for the MSc programmes, though it helps.

The fast track needs a Bachelor's of at least 210 ECTS, plus either at least one semester studying outside Germany or an official internship abroad during your Bachelor's.
