Financial assistance
There are many possibilities for highly qualified M.Sc. students to get paid teaching and research assistantships within the programmes. Requests for teaching assistantships may be noted on the application form, while research assistantships depend on research funding and are coordinated by individual faculty members. Additionally, we offer scholarships to highly qualified students, in the form of full or half tuition waivers. So far we have been able to offer all our graduate students some kind of support.
