TU Dresden is a public research university located in Dresden, Saxony. TU Dresden is a comprehensive public technical university with 17 faculties, integrating engineering, computing, natural sciences, medicine, humanities, social sciences, economics, education, architecture and environmental disciplines. Its institutional development includes 1828 – the Technical Educational Institute was founded in Dresden. The early school was an important pillar of the industrial and technical development of Saxony. Today, its academic profile includes mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, information technology, computer science, civil engineering, architecture, transport, environmental science, forestry, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, psychology, economics, humanities, social sciences, and teacher education. The location is important because The main campus south of Dresden's center, University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus, Tharandt forestry location and partner institutes connect students with microelectronics, manufacturing, mobility, health, culture, environmental research, public agencies and Saxony's international technology economy.
This master file contains a course portfolio with 18 undergraduate entries and 16 postgraduate entries. Where appropriate, subject combinations are grouped under their parent degrees. Examples of undergraduate courses are Architecture, Biology, Business and Economics, Chemistry, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and later courses include Psychology, Teacher Education, Transport Engineering. Postgraduate study includes Advanced Computational and Civil Engineering Structural Studies, Biotechnology and Applied Ecology, Cartography, Computational Modelling and Simulation, Distributed Systems Engineering, Economics to Regenerative Biology and Medicine, Transportation Economics, Tropical Forestry. The specialisations are recorded within the course entry and not misrepresented as separate degrees. Each course remains a parent qualification. This row highlights the major parent qualifications and keeps concentrations, subject combinations, teaching tracks and elective pathways within the proper degree, not as separate programs.
Controlled admission at program level. Applicants should check the official guidance for applications and follow the route relevant for degree, qualification, nationality and admission status. Course by course: Direct university applications, uni-assist evaluation, aptitude procedures, subject-credit reviews, medicine routes, language evidence and doctoral faculty processes differ from course to course. Applicants should check the language of instruction, entry semester, subject prerequisites, selection procedure and document route before submission. International School or University Qualifications External evaluation, certified translations, APS documentation where applicable or other proof of academic equivalence may be required. Master’s committees may ask for module descriptions, portfolios, writing samples, professional experience, or interviews. Admission to doctoral studies is separate from admission to a bachelor’s or master’s degree program and generally requires a viable research proposal, eligible supervision and formal acceptance by the responsible faculty.
Normal degree study is usually free of tuition fees. Students pay a semester contribution of approximately €300 based on the published binding amount and components for the relevant semester. Selected special programs as well as continuing-education and distance programs may charge separate tuition fees. These institutional charges do not include rent, health insurance, food, learning materials, residence formalities, project costs and personal travels. Special tuition may be applied in the case of continuing-education, distance-learning, joint, second-degree or long-term study formats, if provided for by the relevant law or program regulation. Funding may include BAföG for eligible students, the Deutschlandstipendium, DAAD and Erasmus+ mobility support, foundations, research employment or university-specific awards, but each funding application is assessed independently from admission.
Career preparation is a reflection of the subject mix of the university, not a guarantyd placement scheme. Internships, applied projects, research assistantships, employer events, language development, entrepreneurship services, international mobility and a thesis developed in cooperation with an external partner can all help to improve professional readiness.
