What are the basic requirements?
You should have a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in a relevant field of study and good enough English skills. Language skills are usually verified by an international language test such as TOEFL or IELTS but there are also other, programme-specific ways of demonstrating your skills.
How about scholarships and tuition fees?
Tuition fees (8 000 – 16 000 € per year) will be charged from citizens of a country outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland. However, if you have to pay tuition fees you are also eligible for scholarship. In our last application round we awarded a total of 570 000 euros worth of scholarships to our best applicants. About a third of the fee-paying students get the scholarship and it covers either 50% or 100% of the tuition fee. The scholarship holders are chosen based on their previous academic merit, suitability to the programme and motivation. The application form includes a question where you can indicate that you are applying for the scholarship.
NB! Non-EU/EEA/Switzerland citizens with certain residence permit types are exempted from tuition fees.
