Everything you need to know about a Master of Science (M.Sc.) course in Germany

Studying Master of Science (M.Sc.)

The Master of Science (M.Sc. or M.S. degree) is a postgraduate academic degree awarded by most universities, colleges and graduate schools worldwide. Classes are usually technically oriented and focus on developing analytical and problem-solving skills through lab work and scientific research. You don’t need a Bachelor of Science in order to apply to a Master of Science, but you must already have an undergraduate degree in a relevant subject.

The general study duration of an M.Sc. degree is between 1-2 years long. Still, some Master’s programmes in Computer Science and Engineering take 3-5 years to complete, and Medicine Masters can take as much as 6 years to finish, depending on your specialisation.

In order to receive a Master of Science degree from an international tech school, you usually have to write a scientific thesis at the end of your academic studies. Generally, universities and graduate schools award a Master of Science (M.Sc. degree) for finishing studies in Natural Sciences, Social Sciences (e.g. Finance, Psychology), Business, Engineering & Technology, Medicine & Health, Mathematics, Informatics, etc.
