  2. Master of Science in Information Systems
  3. Master in Accountancy

Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • The cited ICT master's routes require an accepted relevant degree, with specified honours/classification conditions and scope for faculty assessment of the academic background.
  • Accountancy has separate subject and programme regulations.
  • International qualifications are assessed for the precise award; a generic business degree should not be assumed equivalent to the required accountancy preparation.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • UM states that its language of instruction is English.
  • International applicants must satisfy its accepted English-evidence requirements, and some programmes impose additional conditions.
  • Confirm the applicable Secure English Language Test or exemption rather than relying solely on the medium of the previous qualification.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • Select the exact course edition and full-/part-time route.
  • The cited 2026/27 AI route is a three-semester/90-ECTS master's, while Accountancy is two years.
  • A similar title with a different study mode can have a different timetable and immigration suitability.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • Check the current course edition, international admissions deadline and any earlier deadline for applicants requiring a visa.
  • The existence of a 2026/27 course page is not confirmation that late applications or another intake are open.
  • Deposit and tuition-payment deadlines are supplied with the acceptance letter.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • For 2026/27, the cited AI and Information Systems course pages list EUR 13,400 total tuition for non-EU applicants; bench fees may be additional where applicable.
  • Accountancy lists EUR 21,600 for the full two-year course, split as EUR 10,800 in each year.
  • These are programme totals or instalments as specified, not a single university-wide annual rate.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • UM's fees-and-funding guidance links government and other funding arrangements, with eligibility depending on the individual call.
  • Fee exemption requires the relevant authority's approval; it is not an automatic consequence of admission.
  • Confirm whether an award covers tuition only, research bench costs or any living expenses.
