The master programmes in Physics and Mathematics are also taught mainly in English. Applicants still need to fulfill the German language requirement, however!

COSOM: Basic German language skills are highly recommended as not all courses offered within the programme are already taught in English. For further information, please contact Prof. Kunz.
