What IELTS score do you need for TU Dresden?

Scores below are from the M.Sc. Computer Science admission page, the Hydro Science and Engineering aptitude page and the ACCESS aptitude page. TOEFL figures in brackets are TU Dresden's equivalents on the new TOEFL scale.

Computer Science accepts previous study completed entirely in English, such as a medium-of-instruction (MOI) statement, only if that study took place in the EU, Australia, the UK, Norway, Switzerland, Canada, New Zealand, the USA, Hong Kong, Taiwan or Singapore. India is not on that list, so an Indian MOI letter does not replace the test for this programme.

Hydro Science and Engineering accepts a certificate of a higher education degree completed entirely in English. Its page names no countries. The ACCESS page does not state an exemption.

Your German student visa is handled by the German embassy or consulate where you apply, not by TU Dresden. This guide covers TU Dresden's admission rule only. Our IELTS for Germany guide covers the visa side and test fees.

English requirements in Germany are written into each programme's admission or examination regulations and can change between intakes. The score that binds you is the one on your TU Dresden programme page and in your admission letter, so check it there before you book a test.
