Step by step guide

    • Can I apply already?

    The application deadline for this program can be found below the program description on the program home page. 

  2. 2.Documents

    • I take care of the necessary documents, which I have to scan for the online application.

    What documents do I need for the application?

    1. Scan of your certificate of higher education entrance qualification (e.g. general higher education entrance qualification (Abitur), entrance qualification for universities of applied sciences (Fachhochschulreife))
    2. Scan of your first professionally qualifying university degree (certificate: e.g. Bachelor's degree, Diplom I, state examination)

      If you do not yet have a Bachelor's degree certificate at the time of application, please upload the following documents: At least 80% of the work required for a degree must already have been completed and passed at the time of application. This corresponds to 144 out of 180 or 168 out of 210 credits. In addition, proof of admission to the Bachelor's thesis (stating the submission date) must be available.
      1. Preliminary overview of subjects and grades from your previous degree program and
      2. the certificate completed and signed by your current examination office regarding the status of your studies.
    3. Other documents specified in the examination regulations (see above)
    4. Supplementary application form, if applicable (only in: Computer Science, Sustainable Management, REE, Social Law and Social Economy, Environmental Engineering).
    5. Proof of health insurance ("Insurance confirmation for university")
      Membership certificates are not accepted. Please apply to your statutory health insurance company for a digital insurance certificate ("Meldung 10") for enrollment at the University of Kassel, which the health insurance company will send electronically directly to the University of Kassel. Please inform your health insurance company of the University of Kassel's sender number. This is: H0000479. If you are privately insured, you must contact a statutory health insurance company with your private insurance certificate. The statutory health insurance company will then notify the University of Kassel digitally that you are "not subject to (statutory) health insurance".

    • In the next step, the examination board checks whether the content-related requirements for admission are also met and decides on the subject-related equivalence, the recognition of previous achievements and decides whether the application is admissible or should be rejected. In the case of admissibility, content-related conditions may also be imposed.  

    • The examination board digitally reports the result back to the master's office.

    • If it is discovered during the procedure that documents are missing, the applicants will be informed of this by e-mail. The e-mail will state the deadline for submission.
