Aptitude assessment interview

The application for the Master's degree program in Digital Humanities is admission-free (without NC), but a selection interview is scheduled with each applicant to determine their aptitude. In these interviews, we have the opportunity to get to know you personally and to check whether your previous specialist knowledge and motivation are an optimal match for the profile of the degree program. Another topic will be the choice of a suitable elective area for you.
The approximately 20-minute interviews will take place online via Zoom between July and September and will be led by two professors from the department. You will be informed immediately afterwards whether the interview was successful.
You will receive an invitation to the aptitude interview by email after your documents have been formally checked, but no later than two weeks before the interview date.

Further information on application deadlines and documents to be submitted can be found in the TU Dresden study information system .
