Ulm University (Ulm University) Summary
Ulm University is a public research university in Ulm, Baden-Württemberg. It has a profile focusing on medicine, the natural sciences, mathematics, computing, engineering, psychology, and economics and management. Its institutional development is 1967 – Ulm University founded as a medical and natural-science university. The new institution was meant to link medicine with laboratory science. Today, its academic profile is also influenced by human medicine, dentistry, molecular medicine, biology, biochemistry, chemistry, physics, mathematics, mathematical biometry, computer science, software engineering, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, psychology, economics, finance and sustainable management. The site is significant because the Oberer Eselsberg campus combines the university, medical center, science park and external research institutes, linking students to employers in the healthcare, biotech, pharma, quantum technology, energy, mobility, software and engineering sectors.
The course portfolio is contained within this master file, listing 22 undergraduate and 21 postgraduate entries and grouping subject combinations under their parent degrees where relevant. Biochemistry Biology Chemistry Chemical Engineering Chemistry and Management Computer Science Business Management and Digital Transformation Management and Economics Dentistry Postgraduate study Advanced Materials Artificial Intelligence Biology Biochemistry Biomedical Engineering Chemical Engineering to Quantum Engineering Software Engineering Sustainable Management. Each course remains a parent qualification and specialisations are recorded in the course entry instead of being misrepresented as separate degrees. 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.
Admission is done at program level. Applicants should apply via the application portal of Ulm University, Hochschulstart or the international route specified for their program. Medicine, dentistry and restricted bachelor’s courses, international master’s programs, subject-credit reviews and foreign qualifications each have a published procedure. Before applying, applicants should check the language of instruction, entry semester, subject prerequisites, selection procedure and document route. 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 a PhD program differs from admission to a bachelor’s or master’s program and typically requires a feasible research proposal, available supervision, and formal approval by the relevant faculty.
Wintersemester 2026/27 Semester fee € 192: € 80 administration, € 92 student services, € 20 contribution to the student body. Tuition fees are €1,500 per semester for non-EU/EEA students and €650 for second-degree students (subject to exemption). These institutional fees do not include rent, health insurance, food, learning materials, residence formalities, project costs or personal travel. 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 indicative of the university's subject mix and not a guarantyd placement scheme. Professional evidence can be developed through research placements, practical modules, internships, career advising, international mobility, entrepreneurship support, employer events and externally linked theses. Internships, applied projects, research assistantships, employer events, language development, entrepreneurship services, international mobility and an externally partnered thesis enhance professional readiness. Ulm University is an ideal place for students interested in research-led education, interdisciplinary choice, international networks and independently-awarded doctoral study.
