How do I register myself for university?
After graduating from high school, all doors are open to you ... but where should you go?
If you're reading this article, then you've obviously already made your way through the jungle of options and made a few decisions: you want to come to Dresden (very good decision ... Dresden and the surrounding area are pretty awesome!) ... and start your studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering at TU Dresden (that's certainly not a bad idea either!).
There are various degree programs to choose from here: Mechanical Engineering, Material Science and Process and Natural Materials Engineering, as well as a Master's degree in Textile and Clothing Technology. (The prerequisite for this is, of course, a completed Bachelor's degree). You can find more information about the courses on offer in the Student Information System (SINS).
The settings shown (see image) will take you to the possible degrees offered by our faculty. You can choose between a Bachelor's (6 semesters) or Diplom (10 semesters) in all degree programs. Before enrolling, you should think carefully about which degree you want to choose. It can be difficult to change afterwards, but it is still possible! It is therefore best to read our guide to Bachelor's and Diplom degrees again. It is also important to know that all of these Bachelor's and Diplom degree courses are admission-free, i.e. without a numerus clausus (N.C.).
To register (i.e. enrol) at the TU in your desired degree program, simply follow the instructions in the online registration form:
After completing the "applicant switch", you will be redirected to the applicant portal.
There you create your user account as described. Once you have received your password, you can log in and register.
Once you have sent the letter with the required documents, it will take a while before you receive mail from the Admissions Office. Then you are officially enrolled and nothing stands in the way of you starting your studies! However, there is one important thing you should take into account before the semester starts: seminar group enrollment is mandatory and can be found online on the OPAL learning platform.
If you have problems with the (first) registration, you can find instructions here.
You will receive your timetable online or at the welcome event by the faculty on Friday in the ESE week. You can find more information here.
