Would you like to pusue a degree at our faculty? Choose from a wide range of bachelor’s and master’s degree programs.
To study at Hochschule RheinMain – University of Applied Sciences (HSRM) with a foreign educational qualification, certain requirements must be met. For example, your qualification must be assessed for equivalence to a German higher education entrance qualification. The language of instruction is primarily German, although some programs are offered in English. Therefore, you probably must provide proof of German language proficiency with an officially recognized certificate. This ensures that you can follow classes and successfully complete your studies.
General information on applying with foreign academic transcripts, language certificates recognized by the university, and the application process can be found on the Admissions Office website.
If your school certificate is not directly recognized for admission to a German university, you can also participate in our preparatory program, PreStudyING@HSRM. The program provides academic and German language preparation for our engineering bachelor’s degree programs.
Application
Would you like to join our faculty for a study abroad program lasting one to two semesters?
If you are a student at one of our partner universities, you usually apply for the exchange program at your home university. Please contact the international office at your home university to discuss the application process.
You can also come to Hochschule RheinMain – University of Applied Sciences and Arts even if you are not enrolled at a partner university. To do so, apply for a stay of one to two semesters through the regular application process. Find all required information about the application process on the International Office website.
Courses for Exchange Students
Exchange students can enroll in courses from all degree programs of their degree type (bachelor’s or master’s.). Each semester, the faculty offers a variety of English-taught courses. Our degree programs are structured in modules, so the topics of English-taught courses may vary from semester to semester.
