Requirements for the Master Program completion of a Bachelor's degree in the ISE program, or Bachelor's degree from a minimum three-year course in water and environmental engineering, mechanical engineering, civil and chemical engineering, technical chemistry, water sciences, or the Water Science program at the University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE), or equivalent degree from another German or foreign university. The assessment of equivalence is made by the examination board. If the admission requirements are not met or if there is a change of field of study within the ‘ISE’ study program when moving from a Bachelor's to a Master's degree, the examination board may make admission to the Master's degree program subject to the condition that certain knowledge be demonstrated by the time of registration for the Master's thesis. The type and scope of these conditions are determined individually by the examination board on the basis of the course content completed as part of the previous degree. The scope of the conditions is up to 2 courses.
