We want to give our new students a good start at Kiel University of Applied Sciences.
Due to application and enrolment deadlines, you may not be enrolled by the beginning of September, especially for programmes with no admission restrictions (electrical engineering, mechatronics and industrial engineering/electrical engineering). Therefore, in your own interest, we ask you to apply and enrol early. You will receive your login details and university ID card by post from our admissions office after enrolment. In the event of late enrolment, please contact the management of the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering.

We offer a mathematics bridge course for every degree programme (except media engineering). The courses will take place from 3 September 2026 to 14 September 2026. Even if you do not yet have your login details, you are welcome to attend this course. No registration is necessary. You can also start the course later, but every day is important.
