About the TUM
Ranked the best university in Germany for engineering and technology in 2011/12 by The Time Higher Education magazine, the Technische Universität München consistently has been recognized as the top University of Technology in Germany. Studies at the TUM may be possible for qualified JYM students, however an additional application for admission to the TUM is required which will determine the availability of this option on a case-by-case basis.
Please read FAQ University Enrollment Options (PDF) to see if the TUM is right for you.
How to Apply
Students must apply to both the Junior Year in Munich, and to the TUM.
How to Research TUM Courses
Visit the TUM Vorlesungsverzeichnis. Select the Fakultät (department) you wish to visit.
Once the Fakultät menu appears, look for the small box on the bottom left-hand side (Forschung und Lehre), and then click on Lehrveranstaltungen. A lengthy list of course offerings will appear. Be advised, however, that not all course titles listed provide course descriptions.
Once the Lehrveranstaltungen list appears, you can sort (Sortierung) the list by course title (Titel); this option is found in the box at the top right-hand side of the page.
When you click on a course, a new window appears. Note that you can also select an English version (Sprache > Englisch) if available; this option again is found in the box at the top right-hand side of the page.
In the German version, you may find information about the course next to Inhalt. Additional information may be available if you click on the LV-Unterlagen and/or Linksammlung/Literaturliste links, which will open another window.
