*Disclaimer: Specialisation and Elective modules available for selection are subject to availability. Unforeseen circumstances that affect the availability of the module include an insufficient number of students taking up the module and/or the unavailability of the professor. TUM Asia reserves the right to cancel or postpone the module under such circumstances.
The first two semesters comprise all theoretical and practical modules and will be held in Singapore together with the partner university, National University of Singapore (NUS). After the coursework, all students are required to complete a mandatory internship with an industrial partner and a six-month Master's thesis. Internship and Master's thesis can be done either in Singapore, Germany, or in any other country in Asia, Europe or the rest of the world.
All coursework is conducted in English, and students will be taught by professors from TUM, NUS, or other highly ranked universities in Germany or Asia.
After the coursework, each student has to complete a mandatory internship in the industry or with an academic institution. It is required for the student to complete an internship related to his or her field of study at TUM Asia.
One can secure an internship in Singapore, Germany, or in any other country in Asia, Europe or the rest of the world. Students who have secured scholarships with their sponsoring companies will conduct their internships in these companies (this can be conducted in any branch of the company worldwide). Students without industrial sponsorship are to look for internships independently. It is expected that all students take an active approach in this search for internships. TUM Asia will help provide students with any possible internship opportunities, but students are to lead the search for internships on their own.

The programme is too intensive for part-time jobs.
As Singapore is a relatively small island city with easy access via public transport, students are able to reside in any residential zones convenient to them. TUM Asia has no in-campus accommodation facilities and our students search for their own accommodation that fits their budget and preferred area of residence. They may choose to live in student hostels when they first arrive in Singapore and, after they have made new friends at university, they rent and share a private apartment with some other friends/classmates. The living expenses in Singapore (including accommodation) are approximately 1,200 SGD per month. The actual amount will vary across individuals.
