Special professional competence is proven if you have a grade above average (better than 2,5) on your diploma in mathematics. The responsible audit committee does the determination. If you have an average grade worse than 2,4, the audit committee may determine, which test performances need to be proven as further entrance requirements. The tests in order to determine your professional competence are performed by the Chairman of the Audit Committee Industrial Engineering.
A vocational activity (industrial internship) in a scope of 12 weeks is considered as an admission requirement for the bachelor degree course. Together with your admission documents, you will receive a document that allows you to apply for an admission without any internship – however, you then need to prove your internship not later than to the point you register your bachelor thesis. Further information can be foand in internship regulations.
