We would like to inform you that applicants with a Bachelor’s degree from China, Bangladesh, India, Egypt and Pakistan have to submit a GMAT (classic/focus) with at least 65% percentile ranking. For more information please click here.
For applicants from other countries, the GMAT remains optional. However, depending on the GMAT score, additional points will be awarded at the first stage of the assessment procedure. The changes will apply for applications for the winter semester 2022/23 and onwards. Please find further information in the info sheet “How does the assessment procedure work?”
It is our primary goal to support students in the best possible way during their application process. If you have any questions or doubts regarding your application, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to assist you.
Furthermore, ranking certificates are not considered anymore. We use the overall grade for evaluating applications.
In addition all applicants must fulfill all of the following requirements:
If you have a prior degree in Industrial Engineering, you are not eligible to apply for this program. However, you may be eligible to apply for the Master in Management and Technology and/or Consumer Science.
A GMAT (classic/focus) with at least 53% percentile ranking will be accepted as proof of English language proficiency.
It is not necessary to prove any knowledge of German language at the time of application. However, as a foreign Student, you are required to provide proof of basic German language proficiency (comparable to A1 level). You should fulfill this by the end of the second semester.
Applications are fully online. Starting Summer Semester 2025, enrollment will be entirely online as well.
Your application will proceed through TUMonline. A guideline about the application in TUMonline can be found here.
All Applicants for a Master’s degree who did not obtain their qualification for postgraduate studies (usually a Bachelor’s degree) at a German university must apply for a VPD (preliminary review documentation) through uni-assist in addition to TUMonline. Uni-assist will make a preliminary evaluation on whether you meet the entry requirements for the Master's program at TUM. Please note that the uni-assist application needs to be completed before the end of the application period, however, the document that Uni-assist will provide you with (VPD), can be handed in later, even after the application period has ended.
All applicants, who wish to apply for a degree program at a German university with a Chinese, Vietnamese or Indian school or university degree need a certificate from the Academic Evaluation Center (Akademische Prüfstelle, APS).
We follow a two-stage assessment procedure to be able to select the best possible candidates for the Master in Management. In the first stage of the assessment procedure, candidates are evaluated based on their previous academic background. If an applicant’s eligibility is still uncertain after stage 1, the application will move on to stage 2. Only until the summer term 2025, the second stage evaluates academic background and an essay. From the winter semester 2025/26 onward, it considers academic background and an admission test. The admission test is scheduled to take place at the end of June and in the middle of September.
