Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • A qualifying first degree in computer science, mathematics, natural sciences, economics/finance or engineering is expected.
  • The aptitude process checks programming, calculus, linear algebra, probability, algorithms/data structures and track-relevant preparation.
  • International-degree applicants must follow both the university's CMS assessment instructions and the applicable uni-assist process; prior eligibility assurance is not offered.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • English B2 is required.
  • Published examples include IELTS 6.0 and PTE Academic 60.
  • The official page has detailed evidence and exemption rules; an Indian English-medium degree should not be assumed to provide an automatic waiver.
  • GRE evidence is optional, not a universal mandatory admission test for this programme.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • First-semester entry is in winter.
  • The catalogue currently states that its information is valid until May 2027 and may change; confirm the final 2027/28 call rather than interpreting higher-semester summer entry as a new-student intake.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • The application instructions effective from 2026 give 1 April–31 May for non-EU applicants with foreign university qualifications; EU foreign-degree and German-degree categories have different windows.
  • A separate year-labelled 2027 call was not verified.
  • Use the nationality/qualification category, not a generic 15 July date.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • The institutional DAAD programme entry lists no ordinary tuition.
  • TU Dresden warns that second-degree or long-term-study fees can apply in relevant cases.
  • The official Student Services table quotes EUR 361 per semester for TU Dresden in winter 2026/27; this is a contribution, not annual tuition, and is not a verified winter 2027/28 quotation.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • The department specifically links the Computational Life Sciences and Applied Artificial Intelligence tracks to competitive SECAI scholarship opportunities.
  • Eligibility for those opportunities is not an award guarantee, and no current 2027 amount or closing date was verified for this profile.
