A bachelor's degree gives the right to continue education at the master's level. However, in this case, it must be borne in mind that the bachelor's program program in your homeland and in Germany cannot differ significantly. The decision on the equivalence of your bachelor's degree and compliance with the master's program is made by the selection committee. As a rule, our students can continue studying the same specialty without any problems. In some cases, additional subjects may be assigned to bridge the academic gap.
