Application and Admissions Procedures:
The prerequisite for admission to the degree programme is either a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Media Art and Design from the Faculty of Art and Design or a first university degree recognized as professionally relevant by the responsible examination committee. Applicants must also pass an aptitude test based on their artistic portfolio. The specifics of this are determined by the aptitude test regulations in Media Art and Design (German) / English reading version (not legally binding). A personal interview is usually not a compulsory part of the procedure.
The following documents must be submitted via our Bauhaus.CampusPortal:
* Language requirements for international students:
Please note that passing the aptitude test does not mean automatic admission to the degree programme. Please submit a current proof of language proficiency with your application documents, which shows that you will reach the required language level by the time of your matriculation at the latest.
In order to be admitted to the study programme, international students are required to provide proof of German language skills of level A2 in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference (CEF). In addition, candidates must provide proof of very good English language skills C1 (e.g. TOEFL min. 95 points or IELTS min. grade 7.0).
Please note: The Professorship »Interface Design« offers a complete English-language course programme. The other chairs offer partial English-language course programmes. As a significant number of the projetcs and specialist modules are taught in German, we recommend that applicants have attained a level of German higher than the stipulated A2.
Before the beginning of each summer and winter semester (in March and September), the Language Centre of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar offers intensive German courses.
For further information or questions concerning these requirements, please contact the colleagues at the Office of Student and Academic Affairs at: studium[at]uni-weimar.de
Please bear in mind that passing the aptitude test does not in itself mean admission to the degree programme. Along with a positive reply, you will be provided with a link to the online application form. We will then check whether your enrolment is valid on the basis of the documents you have submitted (previous academic certificates and proof of language skills). This confirmation of your artistic aptitude is valid for 2 academic years, i.e. the year of your application and the following year of study.
Enrolment deadline: Successful applicants can enrol online by 30th September.
