The practically relevant and mathematical-physical focus of the masters program in Engineering Science prepares you for a career in research and development in companies and other organizations. The curriculum equips you with the knowledge and skills to develop mathematical-physical models for technical systems and to examine these systems using appropriate experimental, analytical, and numerical methods. You will also learn to recognize the similarity of the mathematical approach to various engineering issues, allowing you to develop targeted solutions. The wide range of elective modules allows you to individually determine your area of specialization. You can further select two areas from numerics and simulation, fluid mechanics, mechatronics, solid state mechanics, thermodynamics, and technical acoustics to consolidate your technical knowledge.

The Engineering Science (M.Sc.) at TU Berlin is a Master program designed for students who want to build the knowledge and skills required for careers in this field. Delivered on campus at the university's main campus in Berlin, Germany, the program is taught in English Course and takes 2 years to complete. Students study in a Full Time environment while preparing for future professional opportunities. The next intake starts on April 1, 2027.
About Engineering Science (M.Sc.)
The masters program enables you to expand and advance your fundamental knowledge of mathematics and physics. You also learn how to apply analytical, numerical, and experimental methods to specific, professionally-relevant engineering tasks. You learn to apply your skills by participating in professionally-relevant projects and to integrate these skills into complex systems working in interdisciplinary teams. This enables you to gain the skills to adopt a flexible and holistic approach to problems. A close link between research and teaching ensures you develop the capacity to apply the latest research findings in engineering. You learn the skills of independent scientific thinking and working, enabling you to analyze and process new approaches to problems in an ever more complex technical environment. Interdisciplinary team work is a very important aspect of this.
Requirements and Admission Criteria for Engineering Science (M.Sc.) at TU Berlin
Entry Requirements
As for every other masters degree program at TU Berlin, applicants to the Engineering Science program must possess a first university degree qualifying them for professional work. Until legal validity of the application and admission regulations (estimated to start for the admission of winter semester 2019/20) the following rules apply.
The Engineering Science masters program is taught in German. If you are applying with a foreign school-leaving certificate, you must provide proof of German skills at a specific level. This is a prerequisite for admission. Knowledge of English is useful, as some courses/modules may be offered in English and much of the technical literature is published in English. However, it is not a condition for admission to studies.
Applicants should have good team and communication skills, as interdisciplinary teamwork are important aspects of this program. As the program often requires you to work independently, you should also possess a high level of autonomy and initiative.

How to Apply for Engineering Science (M.Sc.) at TU Berlin
Application process
Step 1
First of all, register at uni-assist or login if you already have a personal My assist account. Please fill in your personal information and educational history or update it.
my.uni-assist.de
Step 2
Please select your desired Master’s degree program from the list of study programs offered in the respective semester. You can use the search window or restrict the search criteria so as the study programs currently offered at TU Berlin will be presented to you (semester, university, type of degree via Advanced search).
Please select the semester you want to apply for which is usually the 1st (starting semester of your studies). You can only apply for a higher semester if you have been enrolled and obtained credits from a previous Master’s degree program (for more information see below).
As you can apply for only one Master’s degree program per semester, please inform in advance which program is suitable for you and if you will meet the content-related/specific entry requirements of your desired study program. Please see our study options for detailed information on each study program.
Step 3
Fill in the application form. Make sure that your answers to the application-related questions are correct and truthful.
You can see your application form via “My Applications” > “My Application Overview” in your personal My assist account.
Step 4
Upload your documents (see the checklist below). Please give your documents an unambiguous namein German or English.
Via “My Applications” > “My Documents” you can upload and see the uploaded documents (see checklist below).
- Please upload PDF files exclusively (max. 10 MB in size for each document)
- Sort and scan your documents in the right order according to page numbers (e.g. transcript)
- Upload different documents in separate files (e.g. High School Diploma and copy of passport/ID)
- Please upload each document only once and choose a suitable file name (e.g. Bachelor’s degree certificate)
Attention: Uploaded documents cannot be deleted afterwards.
In case you have to scan your documents while not having a scanner at your disposal, you can also use a free scanning app on your smartphone.
TU Berlin reserves the right to request officially certified copies on a random basis or in reasoned suspected cases for enrolment.
Please do not send your documents as hard copies to uni-assist or TU Berlin in addition to the uploading.
Please mind the application deadlines (cut-off periods). Documents that are submitted after the application deadline will not be considered.
Please send your application only if your documents are complete. We kindly ask you to refrain from submitting further/additional documents at a later point in time, if possible.
If a subsequent submission of documents is absolutely necessary to meet the formal or content-related/specific entry requirements, you have the following option:
- Uni-assist has not processed your application yet and the application period is still running: Upload the missing or updated documents onto your My assist account.
- Uni-assist has already processed and forwarded your application to TU Berlin. The application period is still running: In this case, upload the documents to be submitted later via the upload form, stating your uni-assist application number as well as the requested personal information. You will receive a confirmation email when we have received your documents.
- As an uni-assist applicant, you do not need to register via the online portal of the TU Berlin. Therefore, you do NOT have to register via the online registration, but enter the application number of uni-assist.
3. The application deadline has expired: Subsequent submission is not possible.
Further procedure:
Uni-assist will pre-review your application according to the criteria set by TU Berlin.
If your application fulfils the criteria, it will be forwarded to TU Berlin as soon as possible for further processing.
If your application is incomplete, you will be informed by uni-assist. Provided the application period is still running, you can complete your application until the application deadline.
TU Berlin will then carry out a final review of your application with regard to the formal criteria.
