Applicants who have completed a vocational training but have not gained a university entrance diploma or a master craftsman’s certificate can be admitted to a degree program after passing an entrance examination (consisting of a written exam in mathematics and English and an oral interview). Berufsakademie Sachsen offers special courses designed to prepare applicants for this mandatory entrance examination and the subsequent studies.

For questions concerning the ESF „Flex“ project, please contact the heads of the degree programs at the individual locations.

Our degrees include: Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.), Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) or the Diplom degree. Our Bachelor’s degrees are legally equivalent to Bachelor‘s degrees obtained at universities and universities of applied sciences.

A transfer to a university is also possible if you meet the admission requirements of that institution. The recognition of credits earned at Berufsakademie Sachsen, e.g. when changing from an ongoing to another ongoing degree program, is regulated by the provisions of the university you want to change to. With a degree from Berufsakademie Sachsen (180 ECTS credits) you meet the general admission requirements for a Master’s degree program at universities and universities of applied sciences. Special admission requirements are subject to regulations of the corresponding university and have to be enquired there.
