It is one of the elite TU9 universities (a network of Germany’s nine best-performing technical universities).

TUM offers a range of civil, electrical, environmental science and mechanical engineering programs including both BSc and MSc degrees.

International students should use the useful Uni Assist tool on the university website to check if they are eligible for their preferred TUM degree. International students applying for winter semester enrollment will need to apply by the 15th of July.

RWTH Aachen

RWTH Aachen is the largest technical university in Germany, home to almost 45,000 students, almost a quarter of which are from outside of Germany.

Founded in 1870, it is also part of the TU9 Group.

A range of engineering programs are offered across four faculties; the Faculty of Civil Engineering, the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, the Faculty of Georesoucres and Materials Engineering and the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and IT.

All engineering BScs start in the winter semester and have a duration of between 6 and 7 semesters (3-3.5 years). International students need to apply for winter semester courses by mid-July to guarantee their start date.

Technical University Berlin

The Technical University of Berlin is highly regarded for its prestigious engineering programs. It was founded in 1879 and today is home to almost 34,000 students, almost a quarter of which are international, one of the highest rates in Germany.

Study options include bachelor and Master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Medical Engineering and Engineering Sciences.

It also offers an Industrial Engineering and Management degree course, which was first introduced in 1926, making TUB the first university to offer such a course.

TUB also offers the Internationally-focused MSc in Global Production Engineering.

All B.Sc. start in the Winter Semester whilst M.Sc. start at both the Summer and Winter Semesters.

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology - KIT

The Karlsruhe University was founded in 1825, but merged with the Karlsruhe Research Centre in 2009 to form the KIT.

As a new technical university, it quickly gained success and became part of the TU9 group. It’s one of Europe’s leading institutions for engineering and natural sciences.

Famous former students include Heinrich Hertz and Karl Freidrich Benz.

Engineering degrees, including both BSc and MSc programs are offered from across four faculties:

University of Stuttgart

Founded in 1829, the University of Stuttgart is another of Germany’s oldest technical universities.

It hosts over 27,000 students, 20% of which are international students.

The university is highly commended worldwide for its Master and Bachelor’s degrees in Automotive Engineering, Process Engineering and Aerospace Engineering.

The University of Stuttgart is consistently ranked as one of the top three universities in Germany for engineering.

All prospective students, including international students, are asked to apply via the C@MPUS management portal.
