HTW Berlin – University of Applied Sciences is a public university of applied sciences located in Berlin, Berlin. HTW Berlin is Berlin’s largest university of applied sciences, integrating technology, computing, business, culture, design and social applications across two main campuses. The history of the institution goes back to 1874, when the predecessor technical school began training specialists for the Berlin industry. 20th century — distinct traditions were established in engineering, economics, and design schools. Today the university’s profile is in engineering, computing, business, economics, design, culture, construction and sustainability. The environment counts: Berlin is a big start-up, digital, creative, manufacturing, public sector, cultural and research environment.

The study portfolio currently described in this file contains 30 undergraduate entries and 28 postgraduate entries. Undergraduate options include Applied Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Computer Science and Communication Systems, Cyber Security and Business, Electrical Engineering to Screen-Based Media, Health Electronics, Informatics in Culture and Health. Examples at postgraduate level are Computer Science, Applied Computer Science, Data Science, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering and Conservation and Restoration, Landscape Archaeology, Real Estate Management. The program names are retained at the course level, and concentrations and academic themes are listed separately as specialisations. Some eighty programs are available in laboratories, studios, project modules, cooperative formats, and some curricula taught in English.

Because language, semester start, academic requirements and selection rules differ, applicants start with the live program page. Applicants use the HTW portal and any required uni-assist or hochschulstart stage. Specific routes, language proof and deadlines are program-specific. International qualifications may be considered for a special credential review pathway, and master’s applicants may be asked to submit module descriptions so that the relevant committee can compare previous coursework with the degree sought. Admission is not the same as enrolment: an admitted applicant still needs to complete the document, health-insurance and payment steps mentioned in the offer. After faculty, graduate-school or cooperative arrangements, doctoral study requires a suitable project and academic supervision.

Regular consecutive study is largely free of tuition. The full-time semester is €375.30 in winter 2026/27, including administrative, student-services, student-body and transport components. Course-specific exceptions are still possible, especially for professional, continuing education, joint or cooperative study. Students should, therefore, budget for costs in addition to the published institutional charge for housing, insurance, learning materials, travel, and any program-specific costs. The funding can be provided through BAföG if you meet the requirements, the Deutschlandstipendium, foundations, mobility grants, project employment or doctoral support. However, every funding has its own application and selection process.

Career preparation is aligned with the academic profile of the university, not a guarantyd placement system. HTW’s Wilhelminenhof and Treskowallee campuses connect applied projects with Berlin technology, business, public and creative organisations. Internships, projects, research assistantships, employer events, entrepreneurship support, international experience and early use of career counselling can all improve outcomes for students. HTW is a good place for students who want a large, multidisciplinary applied university with technological and creative depth in Berlin. Before sending an application the best candidates will compare curriculum, teaching language, entry rules and location with own academic background.
