Where you will study

Berliner Tor Campus, Berliner Tor 7, 20099 Hamburg.

Check the programme scope

Includes a 20-week industrial placement in semester 5. This profile is excluded from our English-only course filter because the handbook specifies compulsory partly German teaching.

Academic and language preparation

Recognised higher education entrance qualification equivalent to a German Abitur, Fachhochschulreife or subject-specific qualification, plus English B2. Foreign qualifications undergo individual VPD evaluation; school-year counts alone do not establish eligibility.

Application route and preparation

Apply online through myHAW. Applicants with foreign school qualifications first obtain a uni-assist VPD. Information Engineering has its own EU/non-EU deadlines and does not use the standard DoSV route.

A published programme does not mean every intake is open. Confirm the academic year, applicant category, required documents and submission deadline on the official application page.
