Yes, we do. Our TOEFL institution code is 8405.

Yes, you can. The MIDE programme is taught entirely in English, German is thus not an admission requirement. It is worth bearing in mind, however, that daily life will be a lot easier if you can learn some basic German. Please note that for some countries of origin, knowledge of German is a requirement for obtaining a German visa.

The HTW language centreoffers a wide range of courses that are open to all students free of charge. MIDE students with no German skills are encouraged to take a basic course. There is an intensive two-week course for beginners in March each year, directly before the start of the Master’s programme (9,45 am-1.00 pm, Monday-Friday, a small fee of approx. 70 € must be paid). Please let the MIDE office know if you wish to enrol.

There are also basic, intermediate and advanced German language courses provided during the semester, usually involving one 3-hour class once a week. Students who wish to register for a language course during the semester should do so online during the first week of the semester. Please contact the MIDE office if you need assistance or wish to register for the intensive language course.

International students are permitted to work 140 full days or 280 half days per year on a student visa. During term time (April to July and October to February), we would advise you to concentrate on your studies, as the programme is very intensive and will take up most of your time. However, there are normally no lectures or seminars during the semester break (August, September and March) and you may wish to work during these periods.

HTW Berlin, as other German universities, does not offer scholarships for students.

DAAD funding (EPOS scholarship) through the MIDE program will not be available for this admission cycle. Applicants should therefore plan their studies without considering DAAD financial support for the current intake and explore alternative funding opportunities if needed. A good starting point to search for scholarships is the scholarship databaseprovided by the DAAD.
